Tuition and financial assistance

Our goal is to provide an exceptional Adventist Christian education at Central Valley Christian School. Our operating budget is not covered in full by the tuition charges: members of the constituent churches invest a large amount yearly in order to equip and maintain the school properly.

    Financial help

    Thanks to generous donors and the Oregon Conference Office of Education, CVCS is able to offer financial assistance and certain scholarships to families that qualify.

    Anyone requesting financial assistance will need to start with our third-party financial evaluation system, FACTS (there is a small fee). You will also need to apply with your local Adventist church in Albany, Corvallis, Lebanon, or Sweet Home, if applicable. After the application is completed the Finance Committee will determine the financial aid award to be given.

    How CVCS is funded

    1. Student tuition
    2. Subsidy from the constituent Seventh-day Adventist churches in Albany, Corvallis, Lebanon & Sweet Home
    3. Subsidy from the Oregon Conference of Seventh-day Adventists

    Elaine Marshall Memorial Fund

    Established to provide financial aid for families who might not otherwise be able to afford it, giving more children the opportunity to attend our school.

    Give to the fund

    A note for Oregon families. Oregon has no state voucher or education savings account for private school, and Oregon does not treat 529 plan withdrawals for K–12 tuition as state-tax-free. Talk with a tax advisor before using a 529 plan, and with our office about aid.
