Preparing for college can seem overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. At VCS, we’re all about giving students the tools and information they need to be successful now and in the future. In the Resources section of the page, you’ll find links to scholarship and financial aid information, CSU and UC applications, college testing information, and much more.  Each student begins college counseling as a freshman by meeting with our College Counselor.  Parents are always included in each meeting during a student four year experience at VCHS.

Vacaville Christian High School is a college-prep high school and we endeavor tp prepare our students to attend four-year colleges. We offer individual academic counseling to students and their parents, host college information sessions with representatives from various colleges and universities, and plan field trips to local universities. We also provide our students with a well-stocked and accessible College Resource Center, and utilize Naviance (college planning) accounts for each of our students. And of course, during the college application process, we’re there to provide guidance and assistance every step of the way.

Our goal is to help students identify their God-given gifts and talents, to appeal to those strengths, to help them discover their interests regarding future careers, and to provide each VCHS student with a variety of post-high-school options, from four-year colleges to military, trade schools, and community colleges.  See our College and Career brochure he

Our graduation requirements are specifically designed to meet and/or exceed the requirements for a University of California or California State University. Our goal is for all graduates to be prepared for a four-year university. Students work with the administration each year to ensure that they are taking classes that will help them reach their potential without being weighed down with an unsuitable workload. This one-on-one support helps to ensure that each student is taking appropriate classes—that areas of weakness are addressed and strengths are fostered. These standards and processes contribute greatly to the general atmosphere of excellence at VCHS.

We enroll all high school students in Naviance to facilitate the college preparation, application, and scholarship process as well as to provide valuable tools to assist our students in discovering their interests and potential major or career paths. We expect our students to use Naviance throughout the application process. Students should also request transcripts via Naviance, planning ahead to ensure adequate time for processing.

VCS offers clubs for Elementary, Middle and High School students. Developing a well-rounded child involves exposing a child to opportunities where they can learn more about themselves, their community, broadening their world-view, and participating in clubs that excel and highlight their strengths.

VCS is a Christian school with a heart for missions and serving our local community. Each year, VCS students participate in mission-based projects. Middle School and High School students are required to serve in a volunteer capacity a minimum of 20 hours during the school year as a part of our missions program and Bible classes. During the month of November, VCS emphasizes the importance of giving back to our local community. From Early Education to High School, our students participate in canned food drives, collecting money, collecting clothing, personal hygiene items, and small toys to benefit Solano County food banks, the Storehouse, Mission Solano, Alpha Pregnancy, and other ministries. VCS partners with The Leaven to provide tutoring for student’s outside of VCS in grade K-8th.
