During 2010-11 Covenant School celebrates its Tenth Anniversary as a ministry of Covenant Presbyterian Church, and we look forward to an exciting year of continuing growth and success! Covenant School provides a challenging, Christian education in a beautiful, peaceful environment.

Our faculty and staff are committed to the mission of our school as we serve the academic, spiritual, social, and physical needs of our students. We love our students as children of God, who are entrusted to our care and instruction by families who desire the academic and spiritual growth of their children.

Covenant School is special because our students attend chapel daily and receive Biblical instruction every week as an essential foundation for the academic curriculum. Our faculty has adopted the highest academic standards for each subject area, and the teachers have selected curricula that are based upon brain research and educational effectiveness.

Lessons focus on specific learning outcomes, and instruction challenges the students to use higher order thinking skills. Our teachers guide the students to make connections and to recognize the relationships between the information, their use of academic skills, real world contexts, their personal values, and their Christian faith.

As a school accredited by the Southern Association of Independent Schools, Covenant School has adopted a detailed strategic plan for the next five years. The plan outlines the school's goals and objectives for continual evaluation and improvement in order to provide the finest education for our students.

The strategic plan supports the school's mission and reflects the perspectives of our entire school community--students, faculty, parents, board members, staff, church members, alumni, and community learning experts. As we implement the goals of the strategic plan, our school community demonstrates our commitment to academic excellence and our Christian mission.

We look forward to our tenth school year of learning, serving, and growing in God's love.
