The best decision I've ever made was to send my 3 kids at CCS. It is a God centered curriculum, so advanced that my daughter who graduated from CCS had a great advantage in HS. The school is so Clean, very safe & all the teachers & staff were super awesome. I thank God every day for His provision & in return I was able to send them to this great Christian school!! I love CCS!!!

When students leave Calvary Christian School, they are not only academically prepared for high school, they have a world view that is solidly centered around Christ. My own children have flourished in high school, and I can thank the staff from Calvary Christian School with helping them to achieve their greatest potential while there.

My 2nd graders has flourished in her time at Calvary. The teachers are great and very attentive to her needs; they are also all licensed. The facilities are excellent. There is plenty of room in each classroom as well as an art room, computer lab, awesome library, and gym. She has at the opportunity to grow in her love of music as well with semi annual music programs where students are able to audition for solos and speaking parts.
