"We love the school! The teachers and staff genuinely love the children & take such good care of them. You all gave my child a love for learning & school by providing her with such a great foundational first 2 years. That's priceless. And you can tell you've been doing this for a while because everything is run like a fine-tuned machine. Lastly, I love that it is faith based."

Our Beliefs
At Calvary Baptist School, we believe in creating a nurturing environment that encourages every child to reach their full potential. Our caring teachers work together with God's direction and support each student as they learn vital academic skills while also making wise choices grounded in faith.
We offer unique activities tailored specifically for developmentally appropriate education – allowing your little one to grow socially, mentally and spiritually. Every child is treasured by us here at Calvary Baptist; our goal is providing them all the tools needed so they can thrive now and later on when it comes time for kindergarten!
"Very kind and loving teach staff! My son loves being here. I'm so sad he has to leave. Add a 2 yr old program! WE LOVE CALVARY!!"
