WEBSITE HIGHLIGHTS
Canvas or Family Portal?
Do you know the difference between Canvas and Family Portal? Both are easily accessed through the MY CVCA page and serve as valuable tools for CVCA families.
- Canvas (LMS – Learning Management System) is the hub for academics. Students use it to submit assignments, track due dates, and engage with course materials.
- Family Portal (FACTS) is designed for school-related business. Parents use it for payments such as field trips and activities. It also provides access to student transcripts, progress reports, and report cards – the only academic crossover with Canvas.

Any student in 10th, 11th, or 12th grade can apply. Please check your email this week for the application link.

The annual Royal Evening is a highlight of the year for CVCA families, students, and alumni. A celebration of God’s faithfulness to His school, the Royal Evening is our largest annual fundraiser, traditionally raising over $300,000 per year for student tuition assistance. The next Royal Evening will be celebrated on Saturday, April 18, 2026. This is an evening of great fun, food, fellowship, and a joyous celebration of what God is doing at His school.
Participating in the Royal Evening is the perfect opportunity to use your talents to benefit CVCA, a great chance to meet other CVCA families, and definitely a lot of fun!
