About Calvary Christian School
Choosing a school is an important and prayerful decision, and we understand the weight of that responsibility as parents.
At CCS, we see it as a privilege to come alongside families in training and nurturing children academically, spiritually, and personally. Our desire is to provide a Christ-centered environment where students are known, loved, challenged, and encouraged to grow into who God has created them to be.
At Calvary Christian School, we believe education is about more than academics—it’s about preparing students to know Christ, grow in their faith, and live with purpose. Founded in 1982 as a ministry of Calvary Baptist Church in King, North Carolina, Calvary provides a Christ-centered education grounded in the truth of God’s Word.
At Calvary Christian School our Elementary program combines core academics with daily physical education, art, library, music and fine-arts opportunities, band beginning around third grade, and Learning Resource Center support when appropriate.
CCS prepares students for college and beyond through a strong college-preparatory curriculum, Honors and STEM opportunities, and Dual Enrollment options for earning college credit in high school. What makes CCS different is the combination of academic excellence, individualized support, biblical truth, character development, and strong teacher relationships. Our goal is to graduate students who are academically prepared, spiritually grounded, and ready to make a difference wherever God leads.
Faith First
Faith is woven into every part of the Calvary experience. From the classroom and athletic field to friendships and leadership opportunities, students are encouraged to view the world through a biblical perspective and live out their faith each day.
Our Christian faculty and staff are committed to investing in the academic and spiritual growth of every student. We strive to create a community where students are known, supported, challenged, and encouraged to become all God has created them to be.
Academic Excellence
Calvary provides a strong, college-preparatory education designed to challenge students and prepare them for life beyond the classroom. Through a well-rounded curriculum, honors and advanced courses, STEM opportunities, and career-focused learning, students are equipped to reach their full potential. Our students consistently perform above national averages on annual achievement tests, reflecting our commitment to academic excellence.
Beyond the Classroom
At Calvary, students have opportunities to discover and develop their God-given talents through fine arts and athletics. From vocal, instrumental, speech, and art opportunities in grades 3–12 to Cougar Athletics, students build confidence, creativity, discipline, teamwork, and perseverance while learning to use their gifts to glorify Christ and demonstrate Christ-like character both on and off the field.
Calvary Christian School utilizes Abeka and Bob Jones materials for core subjects, fostering a Christ-centered and academically rigorous education. Online programs are incorporated for electives, with a Learning Resource Center offering reading intervention for grades 4-12.
