In this episode of our Choosing a School series, Mandy Deeming, Director of Admissions at Vacaville Christian School, talks with Head of School Ben Davis about what families should look for when comparing schools academically.

They discuss how VCS measures academic performance through nationally normed testing, why that matters when comparing schools, how families can review public School Accountability Report Card data, and what VCS’s academic results show in comparison with surrounding school options. They also discuss VCS’s Advanced Placement program, including national College Board AP School Honor Roll recognition, and how strong academics fit within a larger Christian vision for student formation.

Join Ben Davis for a conversation with Josh and Bekah Parker, local Vacaville Chick-fil-A owners and VCS parents, as they reflect on their family’s first year at Vacaville Christian School.

In this episode of Choosing a School with Ben Davis, the Parkers share why they chose VCS, what stood out to them during their first year, and what they would tell other families who are trying to find the right school for their children. Their story highlights what so many families are looking for: a school where students are known, supported, challenged, spiritually formed, and surrounded by a strong community.

At VCS, families are choosing more than a school. They are choosing a Christ-centered education, strong academics, small class sizes, intentional student support, meaningful opportunities beyond the classroom, and a campus culture shaped by safety, order, and care.

Whether you are exploring Christian education, considering private school, or wondering if VCS might be the right fit for your family, this conversation is a great place to start.
