Village Christian (VCS) began as a private school established in 1994 through the diligent and faithful efforts of Dwight and Kitty Hesson. VCS is located on the property of Mid-Western Children's Home. Today, we support students who may have behavioral, emotional, and/or academic needs for support in a therapeutic alternative setting.
The school is chartered by the Ohio Department of Education and accredited to give high school diplomas to every student who successfully completes the requirements for graduation. Students in grades 7-12 receive instruction from state licensed and certified teacher in core courses along with a variety of electives.
