About Calvary Mission High School

Calvary Mission High School (often listed as Calvary Mission Hr. Sec. School) is a well-known educational institution located in the Vijaypur area of the Samba district, just on the outskirts of Jammu. For candidates, this center is a strategic location as it sits near the Jammu-Pathankot National Highway (NH-44). This makes it much easier to access for those traveling from outside the city compared to centers located in the narrow, congested lanes of old Jammu city. The school is situated in a relatively open and quiet suburban environment, which is ideal for maintaining focus before an exam. Being in the Vijaypur-Swankha belt, it is surrounded by essential local amenities like small pharmacies and quick-service snack points.

  • How to reach: Upon landing, you can book an Uber or Ola (which are active in Jammu) to reach Vijaypur. The fare typically ranges from ₹500 to ₹700. Alternatively, you can take a prepaid taxi from the airport counter. For a budget-friendly route, take an auto to the Kunjwani Bypass and then board any bus heading toward Samba or Kathua, deboarding at Vijaypur.

  • How to reach: If your train has a scheduled stop at Vijaypur Jammu, it is the most convenient place to deboard. From there, a 5–10 minute auto ride will take you directly to the school. If you arrive at Jammu Tawi, exit from the main gate to find the taxi and auto stand. A private auto to Vijaypur will cost roughly ₹350–₹450, while a cab will be around ₹600.
