A Seventh-day Adventist school for preschool through 8th grade in Tangent, Oregon. Small classes, teachers who know every child, and 69 years of learning under the valley sky.
Students of Central Valley Christian School receive a Christ-centered, quality, hands-on education through multi-grade classroom environments with low student to teacher ratios.
Teachers engage students in learning opportunities that provide real world examples to enhance their textbook lessons. Our dedicated teachers focus on developing strong values, leadership skills, and a love for learning.
Central Valley Christian School is operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church and supported by four local congregations, so every family who enrolls is backed by a whole community.
Bible class, chapel and worship are part of every week. September’s chapel theme was “Jesus. First. In My Heart.” We believe true education develops the spiritual, mental and physical powers of each student, preparing them for the joy of service.

What CVCS parents say
CVCS has been a great opportunity for us! The school is like a family, we feel completely safe sending our daughter here. It’s been such a better experience than public school was for her. She says, I want to go here forever!
Parent of a 5th grader
It was a perfect fit for all our children. The teachers are amazing and really get to know each child and how they learn best.
Kindergarten, 2nd grade & 6th grade parent
Small classroom size is a major plus to ensure our child gets the attention every child needs.
Preschool parent
We love our CVCS teachers because they are the best teachers! I so appreciate that they are enforcing and teaching the same Christian values that I am at home. I am so grateful that they genuinely care about my student.
3rd grade parent
She loves school and wants to be there! She says her teacher is funny, very cool and silly… She’s the best teacher anyone could ever ask for. All the teachers are hardworking and dedicated. We appreciate and love you all.
3rd grade parent
I like how my child comes home learning Bible verses. It really is a Christ-Centered education.
CVCS parent
To ‘bear with’ us has been an understatement…. as mine has given quite the 4-year adventure. I trust you all impeccably and have seen growth and obstacles overcome… Thank you for the daily sacrifice and genuine love you put into teaching all the kids at CVCS.
8th grade parent
Love, family, safety, and value alignment – these foster (the) emotional spiritual, and physical growth (of our student)
Anonymous parent
CVCS has been such a positive, family-like atmosphere for my daughter to grow not only in learning, but as a good, solid member of society with high moral standards.
