Calvary Baptist School can be found at 2401 General De Gaulle Dr. in New Orleans’ Whitney neighborhood. This private parochial institution was established in 1982 and serves nearly 150 students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. The small enrollment is by choice so class sizes can be kept individualized and students can get the most from each course. Currently, the school boasts a student-to-teacher ratio of 10-to-1.
Calvary Baptist School is dedicated to academics and uses technology like interactive white boards, classroom computers and iPads. All students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade use the school’s computer lab to learn keyboarding and research skills. In addition to academics, there are also extracurricular activities like the National Junior Beta Club, National Honor Society or sports like flag football and cheerleading. Uniforms are required by the school, and vendors for the official school logo can be found throughout Orleans Parish.
As Calvary Baptist School is a private institution, an application and testing must be completed before attending the school.

Calvary has small class sizes that allow each student to get the attention they need. The hands on activities and events make the school a great environment for children to learn and grow. The best part of Calvary is that Jesus is the center of everything. Weekly Chapel and everyday Bible activities keep Jesus in the center of everything.
