Upper School Experience
With a diverse array of course offerings and a school-issued device for every student, Calvary’s Upper School provides meaningful opportunities to explore interests across a wide range of disciplines. As students stand on the cusp of their futures, they are challenged to think critically, communicate confidently, and take ownership of their learning. Beyond the classroom, involvement in the arts, athletics, service, and clubs allows them to become fully immersed in the community while refining their God-given talents. At Calvary, these high school years are more than preparation—they are a purposeful season of growth that equips students to step boldly into whatever their future may hold.
Calvary is a college preparatory school. Core curriculum requirements, leading to an academic seal diploma, are listed below. The Guidance Department assists students with course selection. 25 credits are required for graduation. The credit required for graduation are as follows:

Each Calvary student is part of an advisement and small group, which is composed of students of the same grade and gender, which meets twice a week and serves as a student's home base. During this time, students will spend time in community with one another and build relationships with one another. Advisement time is focused around the academic development of students and college counseling activities, while small group time is centered around their personal and spiritual development.
