School Theme
UNITY IN DIVERSITY


At MVA, we are blessed to have a community of people from different backgrounds and cultures. Our students, teachers, administrators, members of school board, and constituent churches extend the love of Jesus through

compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.

Through LOVE and with LOVE, we all bind a perfect unity.

MVA Welcomes a New Staff Member
Dr. Norma Flores comes to us from Texas. She has taught internationally at several Adventist university campuses.

Welcome to the MVA family, Dr. Flores!
COVID-19 Update

As we resume in-person learning, we would like to share the latest mandate in regards to face coverings and social distancing. 

Everyone must continue to wear a mask regardless of vaccination status. The students will have to check in daily as soon as they arrive at the school. A check-in station will be set up by the main office. Each student will be given an ID to wear at all times. These on-campus IDs must be turned in to the teacher at the end of the student’s last period. The classrooms are set up with desks three feet apart from each other and facing the same way towards the front of the room.

The Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE) has shared some information in regards to the importance of in-person instruction, and response to questions about masking and the Delta variant.
