Our Admissions Process includes several steps intended to assist your family in making the decision for Christian education. You may have already participated by attending a personal tour and Educational Success Consultation. We want you to know us well and understand how we partner in education.
At every step along the way, we’re available to answer questions, connect you with teachers and other staff members, or connect you with Calvary families to share their experiences at CCS. You can always start by speaking with Nicole Maiocco in Admissions who’s happy to help your individual process. When you are ready to apply, these are the components of your application.
