Investing in Every Student.
Every Day.
At Ocean View Christian Academy, education is about more than academics—it’s about preparing students for the world God is calling them into. The OVCA Student Life Fund exists to ensure every student experiences a rich, holistic education that shapes them academically, spiritually, emotionally, and physically.
From leadership development and innovative learning environments to arts, and wellness, the Student Life Fund fuels experiences that equip students not just for graduation—but for life.
When you give, you invest in every OVCA student, every day.
Why the Student Life Fund Matters
Education is changing rapidly. Today’s students need more than textbooks and test scores—they need to learn how to think critically, collaborate effectively, lead with conviction, and engage faithfully in a complex world.
The Student Life Fund allows students to:
Strengthen academic and experiential learning
Expand leadership development opportunities
Support whole-child development—mind, body, and spirit
This fund fuels a culture of excellence across the entire school, ensuring OVCA remains innovative, adaptable, and rooted in biblical truth.

Testimonial
9th Grade Student
When I arrived at OVCA, I was nervous about building new friendships and finding my place. I had never truly felt seen for my talents and abilities. But my teachers quickly recognized and encouraged my gifts, and soon, I was invited to play in the Worship Band for Chapel each week. Standing in front of a crowd was intimidating at first, but with the encouragement of my peers and teachers, I grew more confident in my ability to play and to use my gifts to honor God.
