Calvary Baptist Academy is providing a way for families to give their children the education they need for life founded on the basis that God is at the root of everything they do. Students at CBA will see a demonstrated faith from God's Word that is exemplified by the teachers and curriculum in their classroom every single day. Calvary Baptist Academy was founded in 1981, and through decades of commitment, has been a school home to thousands of students. Recently, changes have been made to seek to bring a stronger educational environment paired with a genuine faith walk in student's lives. Calvary Baptist Academy seeks to keep tuition affordable for as many families as would desire to partner with us, and does so through partnerships with churches like Calvary Baptist Church. Calvary Baptist Academy uses primarily Abeka Books as its curriculum, which is an academically-rigorous means our phenomenal teachers use to develop students in language, mathematics, science, social studies, the Bible, foreign languages, entrepreneurial skills, critical thinking, life skills, technology, artistic endeavors, community service, and more. These happen by having a strong curriculum base, but the expertise and care that our teachers exert make Calvary Baptist Academy a one-of-a-kind Christian Academy that your student will love.

School Notes
- As a part of our commitment to academic excellence and genuine Christian faith, our students have included into their core curriculum a Bible class every day, including a school chapel. Chapel is a time for God to use His Word to encourage, challenge, and grow students to be more like Christ.We require that every student that is a part of Calvary Baptist Academy to be a part of a church as well. Our student body is made up of students from about a dozen different churches in the New Braunfels area, and we are thankful to be able to have a great community of believers that call Calvary Baptist Academy their school!It is the desire of those at Calvary Baptist Academy that students will have a walk with God that is their own, that their faith in God has been tested and proven, and are expectantly trusting God as they "Walk the Stage," receive their diploma, and pursue God's will for their lives. Our graduates have attended every type of university and college, have pursued careers in the Armed Forces, have succeeded in the trades, and have followed God into ministerial work!Our academic standards are set to a high bar, and new students are often challenged early in their time at our school as they adapt to our overall curriculum. But we continue to see success story after success story, as students overcome challenges and excel in the endeavors they put their mind to!
