As an extension of our school's Christian mission and education philosophy, the Quest Program is designed to support students in their journey toward academic excellence: "In whatever you do in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him...And whatever you do, work heartily as for the Lord, and not for men." (Colossians 3:17,23)
The Quest Program offers differentiated instruction or academic enrichment for students who would benefit from additional practice to learn a skill or who would welcome additional academic challenges. The program's purpose is to help students progress toward their learning goals and to encourage students to become confident learners. The Quest Program is not a tutoring service for homework help, and the academic instruction is not a substitute for specialized learning services.
Guidance
The Covenant School counselor, Dr. Catherine Graham, meets with classes and small groups to facilitate building friendships and managing peer conflicts. She also meets with students individually to address academic challenges and behavioral problems. In addition to in-house support, she refers students to local professionals for academic testing, learning services, tutoring and counseling when needed.
Dr. Graham is a licensed K-12 school counselor, a National Certified Counselor and a member of the Independent School Counselors' Network.
