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:
“History has neither the venerableness of antiquity, nor the freshness of the modern. It does as if it would go to the beginning of things, which natural history might with reason assume to do; but consider the Universal History, and then tell us,when did burdock and plantain sprout first?”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a will to renewal. This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of crisesMof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no crisis, there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“In all history no class has been enfranchised without some selfish motive underlying. If to-day we could prove to Republicans or Democrats that every woman would vote for their party, we should be enfranchised.”
—Carrie Chapman Catt (18591947)
