We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We are very pleased with the schools in Calera. Since moving there in 2005, our community has experienced tremendous growth. There have been two new schools opened, one in a new building and one on the campus of a former private school. Calera Middle School opened on the former private school campus. The facilities are amazing. The teachers are responsive. The school is safe. Calera is remarkably diverse. I am thankful we live in this district.
