About Us/History

Chapel Christian School began as a preschool in 1999. As a ministry of Calvary Chapel of Melbourne, it was started as an outreach to the community with three and four year olds in attendance. Kindergarten was added and joined, during the 2002-2003 school year, by first grade as the first two classes to be held in the brand new C building. It was for the 2003-2004 school year that the elders and pastors were led to grow the school, adding second through sixth grade at one time. The doors to Calvary Chapel Christian School opened in August 2003 with 235 students, up from 79 the previous year. In 2004-2005, seventh grade was added, followed by eighth grade in 2005-2006. On May 21, 2006, CCCS will graduate its first class of eighth graders.

As the school has grown in students, it has grown in staff as well. The program boasts a fully equipped Dell computer lab, quality art and music programs, and two levels of physical education classes (K-6 and 7^th/8^th) that will be held in our state of the art gymnasium opening in spring, 2006. Our athletic program has gotten off the ground during the 2005-2006 school year.

Calvary Chapel Christian School is a member of ACSI, Association of Christian Schools International.
