History
In 1994 a group of families in Greensboro, North Carolina sought to establish a private school that would teach their kids from a Biblical stance. The name Caldwell Academy was derived from the life of David Caldwell, a Greensboro native. In 1995 the school opened in the fall with 63 students ranging from kindergarten to 6th grade. The school was originally operating out of rented space at a local Church until its move to a permanent location in the summer of 1999. The permanent location started off with "Founders Hall" and "Smith Building" along with some modulars. Over the summer of 2007 a new grammar building, "Munchkin Hall" was built and K-5 was moved to the new building. Later that year they finished the construction of a new athletic facility equipped with a multi-purpose field, and a baseball diamond.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“There is one great fact, characteristic of this our nineteenth century, a fact which no party dares deny. On the one hand, there have started into life industrial and scientific forces which no epoch of former human history had ever suspected. On the other hand, there exist symptoms of decay, far surpassing the horrors recorded of the latter times of the Roman empire. In our days everything seems pregnant with its contrary.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“This above all makes history useful and desirable: it unfolds before our eyes a glorious record of exemplary actions.”
—Titus Livius (Livy)
“The history of the genesis or the old mythology repeats itself in the experience of every child. He too is a demon or god thrown into a particular chaos, where he strives ever to lead things from disorder into order.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
