History
James Valley Christian School first opened their doors in the fall of 1956 outside of Huron, South Dakota by individuals who desired Christian education in their area. The school campus was built in the James River Valley on the same campus as Byron Bible Camp. In 1972, the original building burned down and a new building was built on the same campus. In 1980-81 7th and 8th grades were added to the high school. On April 6, 1997, when the dikes on the James River failed the school campus along with Bryon Bible camp flooded; water in the school reached a height of between 5 and 7 feet (1.5 and 2.1 m). For the next few years, the school was based the old Huron Middle School building, prior to its demolition. JVCS moved into the current building in August 2000.
