Traditions
Rhetoric School Retreat
Every October our Rhetoric School students & faculty escape to a rustic spot outside of Waco to enjoy a time of building lasting memories and meaningful relationships. The getaway includes times of worship and reflection, long talks around the campfire and of course, lot of fun games, laughter and delicious food
Family Week
Every year we dedicate a week to encourage, honor and enjoy our families, both at home and school. This week is filled with fun family activities such as, Valor family hikes and mountain biking in Cameron park, a family-wide Valor soccer game, coffee for moms in The Village, a Baylor basketball game with dads and much more. Valor is a family- focused community and we love having fun and building memories with our Valor family.
Baylor Homecoming Parade
Every October our students come together and join the city of Waco and Baylor University in the oldest and largest homecoming parade in the country. Valor students and parents have a blast decorating our school float and participating in the famed parade as it’s viewed by thousands through downtown Waco and across the Baylor campus.
Decorating Valor for Christmas
Every year the Valor family bands together to transform our school campus into a Christmas wonderland. With hot chocolate and candy canes in hand, our animated students don the school rooms and halls with Christmas trees, garland, snowflakes, twinkle lights, tinsel and much more! It’s a tradition that adds joy and wonder to the hearts of our students as we await the celebration of our Savior.
