Student Life
Biblical Mentoring
Throughout the week, Valeo students receive powerful biblical mentoring from our teachers and staff including weekly chapel, bible, and biblical manhood and womanhood classes. Students spend hours reading God’s Word, worshipping, and learning how to apply biblical principles to their everyday lives.
Senior Banquet
Every winter our Sr. Prep celebrates a Senior Banquet! They dress up, visit some amazing sights in the great city of Chicago, and attend a live Broadway production. The Senior Banquet is an annual favorite!
Field Trips
All K-12 grades get to travel throughout the year to some of the greatest learning destinations in our region. From the Brookfield Zoo to the Field Museum & from apple orchards to the Elgin Symphony, we always commit to finding the best outings that bring learning to life for the students.
Retreats
We value the time we have together as a student body. A couple times a year, we travel out of town for an extended weekend road trip or a team building retreat at various locations around the USA.
Fine Arts
Every breakthrough that has ever been discovered was in the heart and mind of God first. The study of the arts gives us understanding of life, creation, and the order of things in this world that God has set up. To further understand that order, Valeo students participate in several musical and drama productions throughout the year including our Seeds of Liberty Production, Individuality of Nations, a Spring Music Program, the Art Festival, and our annual Shakespeare Production.
The Shakespeare Festival features the talent and creativity that emerges from a well-rounded and principle approach to education. Each class presents dramatic scenes from the best of William Shakespeare’s classic works. This program is the culmination of two months of work and has become one of Valeo Academy’s signature events, drawing audiences from the surrounding communities.
Valeo Academy’s performances are a celebration for everyone to come enjoy. It not only showcases our students’ hard work and dedication, but also is our way of reclaiming theatre and the arts for the glory of God!
SPIRIT WEAR
Throughout the school year, Valeo Academy has Valeo Wear days. On these days, students get to show their school spirit by wearing their Valeo Academy Spirit Wear. You may use our convenient online store to order.
