We are accepting student applications for the 2024-2025 school year!

Tuition and Forerunner Scholarship Program

Vanguard's tuition is comparable to other local private schools. Call today for tuition cost.

Every parent wants their child to have a quality education in a positive environment, but sometimes money holds us back from giving our students the education they deserve. At Vanguard we understand that frustration and offer scholarship application to all our families. After completing the Student Application, you will receive a Scholarship Application link.

Step 2: Interview and testing

When all forms and fees have been received by Vanguard we will contact you to schedule a family interview and new student intake testing. The interview will be conducted in person at Vanguard Christian Academy with both parents and students.
