We have had two children at CDS for 6 years. We have enjoyed the spiritual and academic growth. We would like to see greater emphasis placed on the music program (band, orchestra).

We couldn't love Calvary more. This is our first year and our kids have flourished despite adjustments. The academics are exceptional and really push my kids. Staff and administration are genuine in their love for each student. But the best part is they actually walk out what they believe.

My son is in the 1st Grade and has been at Calvary Day School for 4 years. All along the way he has had the best teachers and care. He has been prepared and taught each year to be more than qualified to enter the next level of academic studies. The atmosphere for learning is overwhelming positive plus my child is nurtured at a level the his entire person benefits . He is personally guided into a spiritual life while he is emotionally secure in how he fits in every class every year.

Public school can be scary, but there are more advanced and modern approaches to education there. Calvary Day School very much fits into the “south...

Our children have thrived since we enrolled them in Calvary. Our daughter has reached a new level of academic success and spiritual growth since she has entered upper school, and both our sons are doing extremely well.

After assessing all private schools in Winston-Salem we decided to enroll both of our children at CBDS. (Note, my husband and I have advanced professional degrees.) They attended preschool through graduation with an outstanding education that was both nurturing as well as appropriately Christian bas...
