Firm Foundation: Building for God’s Glory

Founded in 1982, Calusa Preparatory has a rich history as a Christ-centered school dedicated to nurturing both academic excellence and spiritual growth. For more than four decades, our teachers, staff and families have worked faithfully to create a safe, nurturing environment where students can thrive in knowledge, character and faith. We are especially grateful that, through scholarships, many of our students are able to attend Calusa Prep. Because our tuition remains intentionally low compared to neighboring schools, these scholarships ensure that a high-quality Christian education remains accessible to families across our community.

Looking to the future, our long-term goal is to construct a new building that will allow us to better serve our students and expand the opportunities we provide. We would be deeply grateful for your partnership in bringing this vision to life. In the meantime, we are investing in meaningful improvements to our current facilities, including upgrades to walkways, flooring and campus infrastructure. These enhancements not only improve safety and accessibility but also lay the foundation for continued growth.

We are also committed to expanding opportunities for our students. Athletics currently include flag football, basketball, volleyball and soccer, and we hope to build a gymnasium with a full basketball court to strengthen school spirit, athletics and community engagement. At the same time, our vision includes developing a performing arts program that will enrich our students’ creative expression, whether on stage or through set design, costuming and production. Together, these initiatives reflect our vision of a campus that nurtures the whole student: mind, body, and spirit.

With your support, we are not just improving our campus, we are building on a firm foundation of faith, learning, and community that will serve generations of students. Thank you for your generosity, your belief in our mission, and your partnership in shaping the future of Calusa Prep. Together, we can ensure that every student has a strong foundation on which to grow, thrive, and shine.

Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. Matthew 7:24–25
