Curriculum

Covenant Preparatory School’s curriculum is designed and delivered in a way intended to support the School's mission of preparing students for success in secondary school and beyond.  Aligned with state and federal standards, the curriculum guides students' study in the core disciplines: English Language Arts, mathematics, social studies, science, art and music.  Students also engage in physical education and competitive sports as well as a character building curriculum which guides students in learning about themselves and their bodies.  Students in 7th and 8th grades also participate in classes that prepare them to take the Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT).  Because of our extended hours, in addition to daily coursework, students are provided with monitored study time daily.
