Covenant Christian Academy

1. Why was the name Covenant Christian Academy chosen?
To effectively market the school to Christian families, we chose the name Covenant because it is Biblical, widely recognized and represents the special relationship God has established with His people through Jesus, His Son, and our redeemer. The word "Christian" was chosen because we are thoroughly Christian in all that we do. The word "academy" was chosen rather than the word "school" to provide emphasis that this is an educational institution striving for academic quality to the Glory of our God.
