Academics & Enrichment

Chapel Service
Our weekly chapel service at Victory Christian School is designed to focus our school community on our Lord Jesus Christ and the teachings of His Holy Word. . Faculty, staff and guest speakers minister in music and exposition of the Word in ways that are relevant to our student's daily lives. Students are also encouraged to participate in the worship by contributing as God has gifted them, and to use their talents as they minister to their fellow students. We strive to glorify God and to make Him known to all in our chapel services as we encourage all to place their trust in, and develop a personal relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ.

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord." (Colossians: 3:16)

Victory has a large choir that performs in the fall for a fall concert, at Christmas for a Christmas assembly, in March at Musicale, and in the spring for either a spring concert or in combination with the drama department for a musical. Music theory, sight-reading, sight singing, and rhythm reading are all taught in the choir class. Students are exposed to many genres of music.

In computer applications class students learn keyboarding, numeric keypad, word processing, spreadsheet, database, slide show presentations, internet use, using Microsoft Office 2003. Computer programming class teaches programming using Microsoft Visual Basic. In addition, seventh and eighth graders learn keyboarding.

Yearbook
Yearbook is offered to students in tenth through twelfth grades. Students learn to produce a yearbook whose traits represent a school obedient to Christ. They learn desktop publishing using Adobe PageMaker to write copy and captions, and design layouts. They also learn to take photographs and edit them using Adobe Photoshop.

Drama
Each year our high school Drama Department, Victory Encore Productions, performs a full-length stage production. Some examples are: Anne of Green Gables, Cheaper by the Dozen, and The Sound of Music. Plays are chosen based on their message and the size of the cast. A large number of Victory students get involved in the play. Many have speaking and singing parts while others work on set design, publicity, sound, and lighting. Excitement abounds when the gym is transformed into a theater and students get to perform before a packed house.

Speech
Victory Christian has a speech team that is growing each year. Students learn the basics of speech writing, performing, and debate theory. Students spend a quarter on ministry-related speaking, learning to share their faith with others, and how to stand on what they believe. Each year students travel to a speech tournament where they compete against several schools. Victory has been very successful in these competitions with nearly every student placing - many of those with 1st place finishes.

Victory Christian Honor Society
The purpose of the Victory Christian High School Honor Society is to encourage the pursuit of academic excellence and to honor those who have obtained it. The goal is to develop spiritual character through service.

To be a member of the Honor Society a sophomore must have a 3.5 cumulative G.P.A., a junior must have a 3.35 cumulative G.P.A., and a senior must have a 3.2 cumulative G.P.A. This average is checked after the first semester grades are recorded. Character and service to the school and church are also part of the evaluation process for initiation.
