The Broad Street megachurch Calvary Chapel has been expanding its school offerings and the facilities that house them.
In August 2023, its school website says, the church augmented its preschool with an academy, with a mission to serve children from kindergarten through fifth grade. The stated vision of the Foundations Academy is “Helping children find their place in God’s story.”
Property records show Calvary Chapel acquired a South Broad property adjacent to its main campus around late 2018. A recent spate of renovation work on the building there — at 3401 Broad St. — began in early 2023 and finished in February 2024, builder Noah Bowling said by phone.
Bowling, the president and partner at Timber Street Construction, said the construction work mostly involved interior renovation with some exterior changes to the facade, but he referred to Calvary Chapel for details about the building and its plans.
