BRAVOS!

Welcome Vail Christian High School Class of 2025!

The All School Clean-Up is a long time tradition at VCHS! Parents, students and faculty gather for a morning of service getting the campus ready for the start of school. There is no need to RSVP. Jobs will vary from inside cleaning to grounds work. Bring work gloves and please check in at the West building when you arrive. Thank you for your service!

Come for a half hour, an hour or the entire time! Any time you can give is a blessing to our campus.
