Giving Day
Giving Day 2024 is Tuesday, September 17
We have a $50,000 matching fund for this event! You can donate early and still have your gift matched. Please write "Giving Day" on the memo line of your check or in the "Memorial or Other Gift" field if donating online. Thank you for supporting FVL's ministry!
Where does the money go?
This once-a-year event supports FVL's Christian education ministry by helping the FVL Federation meet its annual Let the Children Come mortgage payment. Each year, the FVL Federation needs to pay $475,000 to retire its mortgage by 2038.
What did the building project make possible?
We continue to be thankful for the blessings that have come of the 2018 Let the Children Come effort. It resulted in the addition of 11,955 square feet and a remodel of 15,839 square feet. A science and a biomedical lab were added along with four classrooms and two fine arts rooms. The tower entrance was remodeled to provide enhanced security, the student services area was remodeled to allow for more focused instruction, and much-needed office space was added. Without the added classroom space, interested students would have been turned away as of fall 2018.
Thank you for your continued support to enable payment of the annual mortgage!

Focus for 2024/25 - Preparing for the Future
The 2018 Let the Children building project was financed through three low interest rate bonds. The first one, Bond "A", has been paid off, and we are working on Bond "B". Find out about the goal to be reached by October 31 of 2025!
Reaching the Goal - October 2025
In August of 2018, the building addition opened its doors to expanded learning opportunities and over 650 students.
New spaces and more classes were offered than ever before!
Classroom seating and lab tables are both integrated into the design of the new biomedical lab.
Students have ample opportunity to complete hands-on labs. Here, students learned to dress several types of wounds and stop bleeding
The first class to have gone through all four years of the Biomedical program at FVL received white lab coats on their final day of class in spring 2022.
Movable tables, excellent lighting, and a colorful and spacious room all contribute
to making the new art room a wonderful learning space for our students.
Storage units in the back of the new art room offer students a place to keep their work between classes.
Students have access to natural light and tables in the newest art room.
Art summer camps are very popular at FVL!
This multi-purpose room is used for classes, meetings, and dance practice.
Mirrors can be covered and tables can be moved--providing a versatile space!
This room often provides a space for teachers to meet for professional development seminars.
The large mirrors in the multi-purpose room make it easier for dancers to learn their routines.
Our science labs were in short supply before the Let the Children Come building project, making it difficult for all of our freshmen to have the ability to take Physical Science. This is one of the new science rooms that was added to accommodate our growing freshman classes!
Mr. Lemke loves teaching in his new classroom!
Our updated tower entrance ensures that visitors must check-in at the School Office before entering the main part of the building. The SCRIP window is conveniently located in the tower entryway.
The updated entryway gives convenient access to the SCRIP Office.
Two classrooms have been updated to accommodate group meetings that are too small for the auditorium, but too large for a classroom. This is now a space that has a central divider that can be rolled into place for regular class use, or pushed aside to accommodate a faculty meeting.
The double English classroom can serve as two spaces to have meetings, seminars, and workshops.
