Each week, a different member of the Covenant leadership will share from their perspective how we are living out our mission at The Covenant School. We seek to utilize this as an informative and enriching space for parents to be encouraged and reminded of our mission and how it applies to our students and families daily. We invite each of you to partake in the rich feast of classical Christian education at Covenant. Welcome to our “Mission Moment.”

April 23rd, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, Third grade Living History Day (LHD) is tomorrow, and it concludes all of the grade level LHDs for this school year.

April 15th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, With seven years and seven weeks under my belt as your Head of School, I have come to deeply appreciate some great Covenant traditions that are central to our culture and to our very identity as a unique community of faith and learning. While I have always explored wa...Here I am, Lord—Send Me, by Ashley Blakeslee
April 7th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, Our children came to Covenant when they were each in the 5th grade. They are now a Junior and a Freshman—and just a little less than two years ago, I finally stopped calling us “new to Covenant.” I think I held onto that label because I wanted to feel like our family...Bezalel, Macbeth, and Beauty at Covenant, by Michael Attaway
March 27th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, Here’s a bit of trivia for the Bible scholars in our community: Who is the first person in the Bible described as being “filled…with the Spirit of God”? The answer is Bezalel, found in Exodus 31 and chapters 35-38. But who in the world is Bezalel? Bezalel was fr...It's Worth It, by Jennifer Peterson
March 27th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, Most of you are somewhere in the middle of your educational journey at Covenant, and the middle of anything can be challenging.

What if we always faced rejection as a positive...Calling Our Children to the Feast: Good, True, and Beautiful Books, by Meredith Covington
March 3rd, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, I remember it like it was yesterday. Sitting on the fuzzy blue rug in my 3rd grade classroom, 15 children holding a collective breath, Mrs. Brown gently swaying in her wooden rocking chair, reading aloud to our class. “At that moment they heard from behind them a ...Stewarding Covenant’s Mission: The Role of the Board of Trustees, by Amy Anderson
February 25th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families,Have you wondered... What does the Covenant Board of Trustees do? How does their role differ from that of the administration? Who sets the priorities of the board? How are board members chosen for service?While this Mission Moment will not provide a detailed answer to each of ...Fitting Words: The Life-Giving Power of Declamation, by Brett Tohlen
February 19th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, Declamation is an important event in the life of our school where we set aside an evening to celebrate rhetoric’s power over us when done well. Clearly God delights in great speeches. Scripture begins with something like the first Declamation where our Creator brings ...The Tuition Increase Challenge, by Dr. Robert Littlejohn
February 13th, 2025
Dear Covenant Families, This year’s year-over-year (e.g. grade 4 to 4) tuition increase is 5.1% on average. But what our families feel is the grade-over-grade transition (e.g. grade 4 to 5). Let me explain. (This is going to be a tome.) For years we have worked to gradually “flatten the tu...
