Our Mission
It is the purpose of the Calvary Chapel Christian Academy, a religiously exempt organization, to provide a balanced, first-class educational experience that allows each child the opportunity to grow in their relationship with God, to develop an honorable character, and to reach their full academic potential, both now and in their future academic endeavors.
Our Vision
Calvary Chapel Christian Academy is a school that trains children to reach UP, IN, AROUND, and OUT.
- We train our students to reach up by teaching them to pray and give praise to God, our Creator
- We train our students to reach in by helping them to discover who they are, what they already know, and providing them with activities that help them to to grow emotionally, socially, spiritually, and academically.
- We train our students to reach around by helping them to build relationships and show the love of Christ to others.
- We train our children to reach out by providing them with opportunities to serve others in our community.
Educational Principles
Our developmentally appropriate program values Christ-likeness, academic excellence, and creativity. Our program encourages positive attitudes and moral character. Our staff and teachers lovingly provide daily instruction from the Bible as well as consistent prayer for each child and family. We understand the importance of the collaborative efforts of the church, family, and school in the development of each child. Therefore, we will endeavor to aid the child’s learning in each of these areas.
