School Notes:

  • At Covenant Day School, we believe that the educational success of each student rests on a tripod - church, family, and school.  We view ourselves as partners with both church and home, and believe that by working together, we can develop the God-given potential in each student.

    We are committed to providing your student with an authentic and holistic Christian education that develops the mind, nurtures the soul, trains the body, and shapes the character for today as well as tomorrow.  We invite you and your children to experience this stimulating environment - and discover what excellence means at Covenant Day School.
