Covenant Classical School

🪨🔍 Our fourth graders got the chance to explore the Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art, marveling at stunning rocks, minerals, and intricate carvings from around the world. They discovered that lapidary—the art of cutting and polishing stone—dates back to the earliest civilizations, when people crafted tools, weapons, and eventually objects of beauty. Seeing how these ancient techniques evolved across cultures into modern artistry helps our students develop a deeper understanding and appreciation of geology, earth science, and human history.

❄️🏹 Teamwork in Action at Dickson Valley Camp & Retreat Center

Our fifth and sixth grade students recently visited Dickson Valley for a few days of team building and winter fun. Through activities like archery, gaga ball, climbing walls, Blizzard Slopes, obstacle courses, and the Gauntlet, students were challenged to work together with grit and perseverance.

Each activity required communication, problem-solving, and encouragement, giving students the opportunity to practice teamwork and resilience in real time. It was a memorable experience that strengthened friendships and helped students grow in confidence, character, and collaboration. We’re so grateful for a wonderful time!

What do you do when it’s –10° outside? You make it a Cozy Reading Day! 📚☕

While the temperatures dipped, Covenant was full of warmth and comfort. Our Grammar School students bundled up in their favorite slippers and comfy sweatshirts, sipping hot chocolate, and settling into cozy spots around the classroom. Every hour on the hour, students were given space, time, and a comfortable place to pause and enjoy a good book.

A perfect winter day to slow down, stay warm, and delight in the joy of reading!

What does servant leadership look like in action?

At Covenant, it often looks like a fourth grader sharing a story with a kindergartener friend. Through our weekly Reading Buddies program, older students practice leading with patience, kindness, and care, while younger students are encouraged, seen, known, and celebrated. These simple, intentional moments reflect our desire to raise students who follow Christ by joyfully serving others. 🫶👏🤝
