Covenant School Vision Statement
Covenant School strives to graduate young men and women who think clearly and
listen carefully with discernment and understanding, who reason persuasively
and articulate precisely, who are capable of evaluating their entire range of
experience in the light of the Scriptures, and who do so with eagerness in
joyful submission to God.

Covenant School Mission Statement
Our goal is to teach students to diligently, skillfully, and joyfully pursue
Truth (God's Word), Beauty (the arts), and Goodness (Christian character) as
defined by Scripture and Creation. We encourage every student to develop a love
for learning and to achieve his maximum academic potential. Our goal is that
our students will be well versed in the history, literature, and the arts of Western
civilization and will be proficient in mathematics and science.

We desire them to recognize cultural influences as distinct from biblical ones, and to be
unswayed towards evil by the former. We aim to find them well-prepared in all
situations, equipped with the tools of learning, possessing both information and
the knowledge of how to use it, desiring to grow in understanding, yet fully
realizing the limitations and foolishness of the wisdom of this world. Students
should be able to distinguish real religion from religion in form only, possessing the former, knowing and loving the Lord Jesus Christ.

We desire they have a heart for the lost and the compassion and courage to engage them with the gospel. We desire they be socially graceful and spiritually gracious. We desire them to possess all these qualities with humility and gratitude to God.

We likewise aim to cultivate these same qualities in our staff. We desire
them to be professional and diligent in their work, gifted in teaching, loving
their students and their subjects. We desire they clearly understand classical
education, how it is implemented in their classroom and how their work fits
into the whole. They should possess a lifelong hunger to learn and grow.

We desire to see them coach and nurture new staff and to serve as academic mentors
to students. We look to see them mature in Christ, growing in the knowledge
of God, and bringing their own children up in the nurture and admonition of
the Lord. Our goal is to see them adequately compensated, and to provide them
with personal and professional development so that they have opportunity to be
refreshed and renewed in order to do their work with joy.

We desire that our parents partner with us through recognizing their part in
the educational process of their children and being well informed about the
goals of our classical and Christ-centered approach. We desire them to grow
with the school, involved in and excited about the journey. We aim to help them
follow biblical principles in addressing concerns, to be inclined to hearing
both sides of a story before rendering a verdict, and to embrace the
Scripture's injunctions to encourage and stir up one another to love and good works.

Finally, in our relationship with our community, we aim to be above reproach
in our business dealings and supportive of the local business community. We
further seek to exemplify the unity of the body of Christ, to develop greater
fellowship and understanding with the churches, and to bring honor to our Lord
in all our endeavors.
