Calvary Episcopal Preparatory Welcomes the New School Year

Josh Babin, Jayden Hightower and Jake Mukoro are excited to start new school year.

 

On August 15, excitement and energy radiated from all the students as they filled the hallways of Calvary Episcopal Preparatory.  Students at Calvary enter the doors expecting each year to be greater than the last.  Once again the Calvary administration staff and CPTO (Calvary Parent Teacher Organization) did not fail to meet this expectation.  The proof of their hard work is evident in the number of new students, the changes on the campus and the additions impacting extracurricular events. With 43 new students Calvary’s returnees have an opportunity to meet many new friends in all grade levels. In addition, 10 of those students are international students who bring with them cultural experiences that will be shared and celebrated by all.  Its not just the students who are happy to be back. Faculty and staff are inspired and excited to see their Calvary family which is evidenced by an over 90% employee retention rate.   

Since one of the Calvary’s top priority is the safety and security of their students and staff, new measures have been implemented to go beyond standard expectations. For instance, anyone coming on to campus will be cleared through the new Raptor system; added security and safety measures to all entrances and assessible areas;  the internal security measures that have been added to classrooms. Calvary is also proud to announce that their highly active CPTO (Calvary Parent Teacher Organization)  generously donated 2 iPad carts with 24 iPads each, allowing modern technology to be more accessible. An added surprise is Calvary’s two new buses, that were supported by the financial efforts of CPTO, Calvary Episcopal Church and generous family donations.  The buses allow for field trip transportations and athletic events to be seamless for parents. 

The three R’s are alive and well at Calvary Episcopal Preparatory…Reverence for God, Respect of others and Responsibility for self, are all hand in hand with an exceptional curriculum and a family atmosphere.
