CCS has been a ministry of Calvary Independent Baptist Church for 49 years.
We are dedicated to the purpose of training young people for Christian leadership.
The education and spiritual preparation of your children is perhaps the most daunting challenge you face as a parent.
Calvary Christian School exists to help you in that task. We provide students with the foundation upon which they can build happy, fulfilling, and successful lives.
Academics and the arts all play a role. At the center, however, is The Lord Jesus Christ
The number one goal is for every student to accept Jesus Christ into their lives.
