At Calvary Christian Academy, we will never confuse your child to make them more acceptable to the world—but instead will give them the tools to stand steadfast in their faith, no matter where the world wanders.
We have a trained safety team that is on-site during school hours and during before/after school care. They make regular patrols and ensure all entrances are secured, and any guest is signed in and accounted for.
We also have 24/7 video monitoring of the entrances, playground, and hallways.
Upon enrollment, we will collect emergency contact information from you and any other guardian(s) of your child. Our policy is to over-communicate your child's welfare with you, erring on the side of keeping you informed.
We also hold parent-teacher conferences each semester to keep you informed about your child's academic progress.
Currently, we provide before- and after-school care, music programs, physical education, and extracurricular Bible study. We will continue to add more extracurricular options as our student body and staff grow.
