Covenant students are part of a community of learners; a community where parents, faculty, staff, and students work together in partnership toward a common goal…educating each student to the fullest potential while building strong character, good citizenship, and leadership qualities. The Covenant School provides a rich program of activities beyond daily academics. Many activities, including weekly chapel services, promote these virtues. Field trips and retreats create bonds between students and faculty. Lunch at Covenant provides more than an opportunity to eat! Lunchtime is designed to build a sense of community and encourage interaction between students.
Upper School
An important part of student life at the Upper School is involvement in clubs, academic and governing councils, and community service projects. Upper School students have the opportunity to join the staff of school newspaper or yearbook. In addition to drama classes offered during the school day, students may also participate in drama productions after school. Over 80 percent of Upper School students participate after school on one of over 30 athletic teams at Covenant. Students at Covenant’s upper campus enjoy a wide variety of choices to suit their personal desires and interests.
Deans of Students
The Upper School, Grades 7 through 12, is divided into “wings”. Each wing is ‘home’ to students in just two grade levels, with a Dean of Students over those two grade levels. The Deans are responsible for many things on their hall; conduct, dress code, social activities, and creating partnerships between parents and faculty. There is a sense of community on each wing, and the Deans strive to know every student, creating many opportunities for them to mentor and encourage the students.
