Welcome to Covenant Christian Academy’s Lower School website. As principal, it is my privilege to work alongside of a dedicated, highly qualified faculty as we partner with parents to establish academic, spiritual, and social foundations for our Pre-Kindergarten through Fifth Grade students.

Covenant’s mission is to nurture and educate the whole person. This mission is accomplished through our commitment to authentic Christian role modeling, the principles of a Christian and Classical curriculum, and personal knowledge of each student and their unique developmental needs. Our liberal arts emphasis embraces the fine arts (music, visual arts, and drama), the vitality of physical education, and the importance of self-disciplined application.

Our core values embracing respect, responsibility, effort, integrity, and kindness, determine the character development we seek to inspire in our students.

The Lower School program offers essential foundations in reading (phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension) the rudiments of Latin and English grammar, mathematical skills and problem solving, discovery learning in the Scientific Method, interdisciplinary curricula in core subjects, Writing Across the Curriculum, and cultural literacy. Assessments include annual Stanford Achievement Tests, DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills) benchmarks, and writing portfolios. I would encourage you to peruse our website to be introduced to our faculty, to read curriculum overviews, and to view our multifaceted program. You are cordially invited to join us for upcoming Open Houses!
