What makes SVA different from any other college preparatory school? Its spiritual emphasis makes all the difference.

ELEMENTARY

In addition to daily Bible class, classroom worships and scheduled chapels, a week of spiritual emphasis is planned twice a year for students in the elementary division. Guest speakers often lead out in these programs.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

In addition to daily Bible class instruction and daily worship, the students will participate in regularly scheduled chapel programs as well as fall and spring Week of Prayer programs. Occasionally, middle school students will attend high school chapel or Week of Prayer programs. In order to make this experience the best it can be, bookbags, textbooks, homework assignments or other distractions should not be taken into chapel programs.

HIGH SCHOOL

Not only is worship time purposefully set aside on a daily basis for small "family" groups, but the high school division meets each Wednesday for an hour of spiritual renewal. Special Week of Prayer programs are conducted twice a year. These spirit-filled weeks, led by both students and guest Christian speakers, challenge the youth in their spiritual journey. Friday evening vespers also serve as a meaningful time for students to relax and worship in a variety of ways as they welcome the Sabbath hours.
