The school has been operating for approximately 125 years (founded circa 1900) and delivers a Christ-centered educational program across three divisions: Elementary (K-5), Middle School (6-8), and High School (9-12). Academic offerings are augmented by college-prep programming — including an ACT preparation track beginning in 9th grade, dual-enrollment college credits in Physics and Pre-Calculus & Trigonometry through Union College, fine arts, athletics competing in the Nebraska Frontier Conference, robotics, and Campus Ministries — with ACT scores reported to exceed Nebraska state averages across multiple years.

The school's technology stack is composed of commodity, cloud-based educational platforms: Renweb for student information and the Family Portal, Google Workspace for Education, Google Calendar and Forms for scheduling and intake, FACTS for financial aid assessment and tuition billing, Constant Contact for email communications, eTapestry and Adventist Giving for donation processing, and Google Analytics for web tracking. The Adventist Screening Verification system handles staff/volunteer background checks. The website is hosted on the Adventist Connect platform provided by the North American Division. No proprietary technology or AI/ML capabilities are evident in the provided material.

CVA's revenue model is primarily tuition-based and subscription-recurring, with published 2026-27 annual tuition tiers of $3,600 (K half-day), $5,700 (K full-day and Grades 1-4), $6,700 (Grades 5-8), and $9,000 (Grades 9-12), billed monthly with discounts for annual (3.5%) and semester (2%) prepayment, and a $50 enrollment deposit. Supplemental revenue comes from after-school care ($180/month for K-6), annual entrance fees by grade, and donations through the Fund the Future Campaign, Worthy Student Fund, and Worthy School Fund. Financial aid is administered through FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via the school's website, Facebook and Instagram, community outreach, referrals, and Educational Success Consultations; the institution operates as a non-profit under the governance of a College View Board with ultimate oversight from the NAD.
