Main stage dramas performed yearly by 5th and 6th graders, Middle School (7th and 8th grades), and Upper School students at the Performing Arts Center at the Upper School.  The Covenant School encourages student participation in plays, emphasizing team work and the effective communication of thoughts and ideas to an audience.  Each year, a full-scale musical is produced, and students who wish to work “behind the scenes” have the opportunity to create sets, work with the sound, lights, and props, or make costumes.

  • Anne of Green Gables
  • Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night
  • Cheaper by the Dozen
