8/1/2025
Loved my experience at Calvary Academy from kindergarten through my senior year. Incredibly grateful for my teachers' impact that's deeply influenced my life today.
6/7/2025
both of my kids have gone through the school and it was a great experience. They learned more than they would have in public school because of all the work that they have done and homework. The spiritual atmosphere was also amazing. The thing to change would be to pay the teachers more because of their hard work.
6/6/2025
Calvary offers the best K-12 education in Springfield, Illinois. The school has amazing teachers and an excellent sports program. The children are kept safe without feeling like they are in a prison environment.
