Join to apply for the 2025-26 Substitute Teacher/Student Teaching Application role at Calvary Day School

Our mission at Calvary Day School is to provide a Christ-centered educational experience for students attending from Birth through 12th grade through the development of the total student – spiritually, academically, socially, and physically. We are the largest Christian school and premier educational leader in Savannah. Like Christ, we seek to grow in wisdom (Luke 2:52) as we partner with families daily.

We deliver exceptional academic offerings while fostering relationships in small groups, chapel, small classes, student services, and grade-level academics. Calvary uses co-curricular programming to teach life and leadership skills in athletics, fine arts, and the myriad of clubs and activities offered. Through our robust college counseling program, we provide a variety of services allowing for individualized higher education planning. Mentorship and intentional counseling prepare our students to be a light on a hill on college campuses and beyond.

Our highly skilled faculty and staff love the Lord, love our students, and are passionate about their calling. They are the heartbeats of our school. Their experience and pedagogical expertise allow Calvary to create an educational atmosphere that thrives on relationships amid discovery.
