Overview
Nampa Christian Schools, through a Christ-centered partnership with families and Churches, exists to glorify God with our HEART, HEAD, and HANDS. Our vision at Nampa Christian Schools is to provide a high-quality education with the Gospel and a Biblical Worldview as its foundation.
Our purpose is to equip, shape, and disciple students' HEARTS, HEADS, and HANDS in the truth and authority of Scripture, striving for excellence to glorify God in all areas of learning and life.
Our school was established in 1994. We currently serve students in grades K-8.
We offer curriculum rooted in biblical principals, using resources from Abeka (K-2), Apologia/Masterbooks (Science), Notgrass (History/Geography), IEW/Fix-It Grammar (Writing/Grammar), Saxon (Math), Positive Action for Christ (Bible)
At Calvary Christian School we believe that if God is not in the education then it is not a proper education. That is why we focus on seeing both a spiritual growth and academic growth in every student.
