Background
editCalvary Murrieta Christian Schools (CMCS) was established in 1993 by Calvary Chapel Murrieta with the mission to partner with families in the education and development of students committed to serving Christ. The school operates under the accreditation of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) for grades 7–12 and the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) for the same grades. CMCS is also a member of the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF).
The preschool section of CMCS offers three levels of education: Little Warriors Preschool, Pre-Kindergarten, and Kindergarten through fourth grade. The principal overseeing these grades is Amber Dunn.
The elementary division at CMCS includes courses in Bible study, mathematics, reading, English, writing, history, and science. Additional enrichment classes are available in art, technology, physical education, library skills, music, and science. Christy Hartman serves as the principal of the elementary school.
In junior high, students study core subjects including the Bible, English, math, science, and history. Electives in this division include art, technology, physical education, music, yearbook, and associated student body (ASB) activities. The school also offers extracurricular programs in athletics, jazz, drama, and visual arts, with Melissa Chesnsey acting as the Assistant Principal.
The high school component of CMCS, which served grades 9–12, was operational from 1993 until its closure in May 2019. The closure, as announced by Pastor Brian Bell of Calvary Chapel Murrieta, was due to financial constraints and a decline in student enrollment. Following the closure, students were encouraged to transfer to Linfield Christian School in Temecula.
