Victory Village Christian Academy

Victory Village is located seven miles east of Hutchinson, one mile east of the Buhler-Haven Road, at the corner of Avenue G (old highway 50) and Victory Road, where there is a sign, and then three eighths of a mile north. When driving from Wichita, take K-96 to Haven and the Haven-Buhler Road north to U.S. 50. Go one mile beyond Highway 50 to Avenue G, one mile east to the sign and then north to the entrance. From Newton, take U.S. 50 west and go two miles past Burrton. Turn north at the Reno County line and follow Old U.S. 50 a mile north and three west to the sign, and then north to the entrance. From McPherson, take K-61 to Inman. Go south on Main Street to Buhler and another six miles to the tall towers. Go another mile to Avenue G, then east one mile to the sign, and then north to the entrance.

Though in a typical Kansas rural setting of fields, woods and rolling meadows, we are only a few minutes away from a modern mall, hospital, library, Space Center with Omnimax theater and museum, restaurants, motels, and other necessary and convenient facilities. We will be happy to furnish you a map of the area, including Reno County and the City of Hutchinson, to help you find your way around. Amtrak, eastbound to Chicago and westbound to Los Angeles, stops in Hutchinson daily. Wichita's Mid-Continent Airport is 45 miles away and is served by a number of major airlines.
