Middle School

Middle School is a time of significant intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual change for students. We understand these unique years and partner with parents through this transitional time.

Busting Middle School Myths

At Covenant Day, middle school teachers are passionate about working with middle schoolers. We guide our students toward intellectual and spiritual maturity, partnering with parents through this transitional time between lower and high school. In addition to core subjects, students choose from art, band, choir, CREATE, drama, broadcast journalism, strength and mobility, or Spanish electives. 8th-grade students can participate in chapel leadership. Students benefit from small class sizes, meaningful chapels, innovative technology, small-group devotions in homeroom, and a small student-teacher ratio.

Where We Shine

Guiding Through the Years of Change

Middle school is a pivotal time, and we believe students thrive best when schools and families work together. Our teachers are not only passionate about teaching middle schoolers—they’re committed to partnering with parents to support and guide each student’s academic and spiritual growth.

Next-Level Learning in Literacy and Math

In addition to English class, each student takes Applied English, where they focus on essay-writing skills through extended instructional time. Math instruction emphasizes logic, communication, and problem-solving to build strong conceptual understanding and real-world application.

Purposeful Spaces for Middle Schoolers

Students learn and flourish in spaces designed just for them. A dedicated building, outdoor play areas with basketball and ping pong, a turf field and track, a gym, and a creative makerspace give students room to grow, connect, and explore. Every space supports their unique season of learning and development.

Opportunities that Fuel Creative Growth

Winter Term offers students immersive experiences that spark curiosity, fuel creative growth, and build community. Whether pasta making, skiing, designing shoes, traveling to Washington, D.C. or to Florida, there is something for everyone! Elective classes nurture creativity all year long.
