Incoming Transfers
Welcome to Valor!
As an incoming transfer student, we know that you have a lot on your mind. We’re here to help you with course selection, academic planning, summer assignments, co-curricular activities, and other opportunities to find your place here at Valor Christian High School.
While it may seem overwhelming to change high schools, rest assured that you are not alone. Every year we have several students transfer into Valor who are thriving, and you will find a strong sense of community through our small class sizes and an exciting campus life.
Setting You Up For Success at Valor
Now that you have been admitted to Valor, please follow the three steps below to get you on your way to becoming a Valor Eagle!
Questions? Please email our Academic & College Counseling Team.
STEP 1: Finish Enrollment
Families will receive an email from the Valor Enrollment Team explaining the next steps to secure your enrollment at Valor. The email will explain how to access your enrollment documents and tuition assistance award notifications, if applicable. If you did not complete your tuition assistance application by March 7, 2025, your award notification will be available at a later date.
STEP 2: Course Planning
The Academic & College Counseling team is excited to begin working with your student to help them prepare for the transition to Valor. After you complete enrollment, a counselor will reach out to you within two weeks.
To help prepare, here is a link to our Curriculum Guide, which includes all of the courses we offer at Valor and the prerequisites needed to take the course.
STEP 3: Placement Testing
Math - Transfer students are required to take a math placement test. This will help us in determining what math course the student is ready to take and if there there is any additional support needed for the course.
World Language - If you need or want to continue in a World Language (Spanish, French, Latin, or Chinese) course, you are required to take a placement test.
English - If you are pursuing an Honors or AP level English class, you are required to take a placement test for English.
Please register here for a testing date. If you need to change your testing date, please re-register for a new date.
