Best school ever!!!
5 4/7/2023
CBA is an exceptional school. We've had an amazing experience over the past four years.
5 10/1/2020
My Son has attended CBA for two years now, and he describes it as a very happy place where the teachers smile at him. He loves his classes thus far and has a new passion for learning. Mrs. Barnett instilled a love of history in my child, and for that I am very grateful. I wish they still had a track team, but they do basketball, volleyball, and soccer.
5 2/23/2019
I had two children attend CBA from Kindergarten through 12th grade. Our experience at Calvary was exceptional. They were college prepared. Both graduated college with honors. But the most important benefit from their time at CBA was the godly leadership, from the time in the classroom, from administration, coaches, peers and their families. We wanted an environment that aided our parenting in giving and instilling a Biblical world view in their hearts and lives. And Calvary Baptist Academy provided that for us.
