Junior and senior high life at CCS is carefully designed and managed to insure maximum development of all academic, social, spiritual, and physical skills necessary for success in life and vocational endeavors. As is every grade, the spirit is sweet in junior and senior high school at CCS, academics are excellent, the environment is safe, the teachers are loving, students learn and have fun, and the Lord is honored!

Four courses of high school study are available leading to a General Diploma, a College Prep Diploma, a College Prep Diploma with Honors, or an Occupational Diploma. (See Diploma Requirements) Our strong recommendation for all CCS graduates is that they pursue their post high school education in one of several recommended Christian colleges (general diploma required). Calvary also offers a College Prep Diploma track of study, which thoroughly prepares our graduates for the more stringent entrance requirements of University of North Carolina schools. Students who complete at least seven Honors Courses during their high school career earn a College Prep Diploma with Honors. (See Advanced Academic Options). A fourth track of study leading to an Occupational Diploma is also available for students with certain disabilities. (Approval from both parents and school administration is required.)

Here is a typical course of study for students pursuing a College Prep Diploma at CCS.

 

Fine Arts: All 7-12^th grade students participate in Fine Arts during that designated period each day. All Jr/Sr High students choose two out of four main areas of Fine Arts to focus on each year. (Options include chorus, speech, art, & Bible Quizzing.) Fine Arts students produce major and minor dramatic productions, perform in recitals, and compete in the NCCSA Fine Arts Competition each year.

ACHS: Eligible students are inducted into the CCS chapter of the American Christian Honor Society in the spring of their sophomore year on the basis of Christian testimony, scholarship, character, service, and leadership.

Advanced Options: Even beyond the more rigorous challenge of the College Prep Diploma Track, CCS offers an Accelerated math Track that include Honors Courses, and Dual Enrollment courses that allow students to earn college credit while in high school. (See Advanced Academic Options for more information.)

Clubs: CCS offers an exciting clubs program designed to create future leaders through school, church & community opportunities. CCS offers a variety of clubs that meet several student body needs and broaden and support student leadership experience. We encourage all 7-12^th grade students to enjoy the benefits of enrichment, leadership and initiative opportunities provided by club involvement at Calvary Christian School. (For more information see CLUBS)

Sports: CCS students enjoy exciting interscholastic sports competition with other schools in the Carolina Christian Conference. (See HS Cougar Sports) Soccer, basketball and baseball for the boys and volleyball, basketball and cheerleading for the girls all contribute to an electrifying Cougar Spirit!

Many clear distinctives make Calvary Christian High School a strong favorite of parents wishing the best academically and spiritually for their children. (See More Points of Distinction)
