Valley Lutheran is a class "C" school.

Prior to the mid-90's Valley Lutheran did not have a football team (also due to budget restrictions), as a result, the school was always well-known for its soccer team. Because there was no football team, the annual homecoming dance was held in conjunction with a soccer match instead of the more-traditional football game.

Despite its small size, Valley Lutheran is known for it's incredibly involved student spirit sections, especially at basketball games.

The "Carpet Dome"

Prior to 1995 Valley Lutheran's basketball court was carpeted, and students dubbed the gym the carpet dome. When the school was constructed, the decision was made to cover the gym in carpet for financial reasons as well as noise reduction. Because of the school's religious background, there are daily chapel assemblies and it was thought that a carpeted gym would be quieter than wooden flooring. In 1995, the school replaced the carpeted basketball court with a more-traditional wooden flooring. The Saginaw News frequently reported that the carpeted floor gave the home team a 10 point advantage.
