Academics

Striving for excellence in the classroom

The academic pillar of Calvary Christian Academy is built on a biblical perspective, where students learn to view the world and their role in it. We strive for excellence, shaping our students to be world-changers. 

We accomplish this with our educational professionals, who are called by God to CCA. Our teachers receive ongoing professional development in biblical integration and leading practices in their field, allowing them to teach all subjects through a biblical lens and worldview. 

We set high academic standards with: 

  • Carefully selected curricula at each grade level
  • Leading technology 
  • Research-based instructional practices

And a variety of other resources — all to deepen students’ intellectual skills and help them reach their highest potential.

Philosophy of Education

Calvary Christian Academy Fort Lauderdale is a ministry of Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale, adhering to the church’s mission, vision and values by mirroring it within an educational context. 

CCA exists to make disciples of Jesus Christ in a biblical school environment that prepares students to glorify God spiritually, academically and socially. We also share CCFTL’s Statement of Faith and doctrinal principles.

CCA is designed to be a distinctively Christian school system and desires to "seek first His kingdom and righteousness" (Matthew 6:33), in all aspects of its mission, including, but not limited to decisions on philosophy, standards, curriculum, and finances, as well as unforeseen future educational trends.

Calvary Christian Academy considers Jesus Christ to be preeminent in all we do (Colossians 1:18) and prayerfully desires to pursue world-class education in His name!

Academic Standards

CCA has developed its own set of academic standards that meet or exceed state and national standards. We make sure that our students are taught the concepts that will prepare them for each grade level, high-stakes testing, and college. 

CCA utilizes the following standards:

  • LCA standards (developed by Liberty University professors in conjunction with their K-12 school educators) 
  • Florida Department of Education standards 
  • International Society for Technology in Education standards 
  • American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages standards
  • Department of Defense standards

We trust that this comprehensive approach will empower our students, so that they can leave CCA as world-changers.
