I graduated from Calvary Christian Academy in 2010 and now attend a Christian university. I recently had the opportunity to talk to one of my teachers from Calvary, and we soon found ourselves laughing about all of the incredible memories we have from her class. The most unique thing about CCA is the fact that students receive a Christ-centered education from teachers who truly care about them and are invested in their lives. My class at CCA became my family. We still celebrate with one another and support each other, even though we're at different colleges. I am so grateful for CCA and how it prepared me for my future. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who was looking for a school in the area.
Two of my children graduated from Calvary Christian Academy. I was very pleased with the academics and the spiritual environment. One of our CCA graduates is a year away from completing Medical School. The other graduate just finished a degree in Nuclear Engineering from the University of Michigan. Neither could have achieved these goals without the excellent academic preparation they received at Calvary Christian Academy. More importantly, both are walking with Jesus Christ, which is the most important result. CCA played an important role in the spiritual development of my children. I highly recommend this excellent Christian School.

Outstanding Practical Education. Over many years we have hired seven CCA graduates. These positions included clerical, accounting, AutoCAD design and engineering college students. Their performance in each of these positions consistently proved to be down to earth practical demonstrating honesty along with their excellent math, english and computer skills that are superior to other young hires over our 33 years of business. One of these CCA graduates hired in 20 years ago and after several promotions is now a Vice President and owner. As co-founder and an owner of Duckworth & Associates I am highly recommending Calvary Christian Academy.
I love this school. I graduated from Calvary Christian Academy in the 1980s. A generation later, both of my daughters have also graduated from CCA. Similar story with my sister who graduated from CCA around the time I did. Her son also graduated from CCA with one of my daughters last spring. I started out in the local public schools. After a decade, the public schools hadn't taught me much and I had no direction. I enrolled in CCA for 10th grade and was tested to see how prepared I was for their 10th grade curriculum. Testing revealed I was far behind in all subjects. In English, for example, I was prepared to begin CCA's 7th grade curriculum. Still, I entered as 10th grader and the fall semester began. After three years of commitment from CCA's faculty to get me caught up, I was definitely caught up. When I was tested during my first month at college, I was awarded first place in English, having achieved the highest score in that year's freshman class. CCA gets the credit. I could give many other reasons to choose CCA, such as the family atmosphere and challenges to grow spiritually, but I'll conclude by stating the obvious: I'd definitely encourage others to choose CCA.

Calvary Christian Academy does an excellent job of preparing students for College. Every year its students do extremely well on the ACT. CCA is the only school my kids have known. My son received a great foundation for College in all of the important academic areas and is now pursuing a degree at an academically challenging Christian College. The school administrator leads the teachers in prayer for the students each day and they all show a personal interest in the kids. Teachers are willing to take time each day to help students if they are struggling. CCA is a very positive, genuine school.

Calvary Christian Academy truly loves God and makes every effort to include God's Word into their daliy class lessons. The staff knows the students and do a great job in helping them succeed. This is not your typical school. It is tops in the way of Christian education.

My son's school is the best Christian school in the area and also the most affordable. The teachers are very caring and the school is definitely Christ-centered. Most students qualify for scholarships upon graduation.

CCA is truly a blessing for any parent wanting to send their children to a school where Christ is central. The Bible is incorporated nicely into the curriculum and I am very impressed with where my children are already at academically. My 2nd grader regularly reads 200+ page books which puts me to shame! You will have a very hard time finding teachers as committed to your kids and with Christ's sacrificial love as you get at Calvary. The investment is significant, but I can assure you is well worth the cost.

Our experience was not favorable. Test scores and stats are not available for a reason. There are many fine Christian schools in the area that out perform this school.

As a former student, I have found that CCA prepared me for what I was going to face in College and Seminary. This goes for not only the bible background but also the academics. I am very thankful for the time that each teacher spent investing in my life for my spiritual and academic growth.
The great care and love that the teachers have for each student and family.
CCA is a great school. The teachers and staff are committed to giving students a first-rate education from a Christian perspective. Not only did my kids learn how to incorporate God in their everyday lives, they always scored high in the standardized achievement tests that were given. What a great combination!
