Forming Wisdom, Character & Purpose
At New Covenant School, we believe the elementary years are the most formative years of a child’s life. These years shape identity, character, worldview, and a child’s capacity to live wisely and love well. Our Elementary Program integrates strong academics, joyful worship, meaningful service, and hands-on, inquiry-rich learning to cultivate students who think deeply, act compassionately, and live purposefully as children of God.
What Your Child Experiences:
Bible & Spiritual Formation
Daily chapel, Scripture teaching, prayer, and spiritual habits help students know God’s story and their place in it. Children practice worship, reflection, journaling, and living out their faith in everyday moments.
Strong Academics
• Math in Focus (Singapore approach) builds deep understanding and problem-solving.
• Literacy Workshop develops strong readers and writers through phonics, mini-lessons, and guided practice.
• Smithsonian Science brings hands-on investigations and real-world inquiry.
• Social Studies fosters curiosity, civic understanding, and a biblical worldview.
Stem, Coding & Innovation
As a Lemelson–MIT partner school, students learn engineering, invention, coding, and digital responsibility. They identify problems, build prototypes, and present solutions, discovering how innovation serves others.
Inspired Arts
Art, music, choir, and performances help students worship creatively and express the beauty of God’s world. They participate in school-wide celebrations like Christmas and the Spring Arts Showcase.
Physical Education
Students learn teamwork, fitness skills, and healthy stewardship of their bodies, taught through a Christian lens of honoring God with strength and discipline.
Kingdom Service Learning
Students engage in age-appropriate service projects connected to what they are studying, learning to see needs, act with compassion, and use their gifts to serve the world God loves.
Love in Action
Kingdom Service Learning helps students connect their faith to meaningful, real-world learning. Rooted in God’s redemptive story and aligned with academic standards, students take on hands-on projects that meet real needs while growing as compassionate, thoughtful problem-solvers shaped by Christ. Through partnerships with trusted local and national organizations, students gain expert-led experiences that deepen learning and expand impact. Whether studying sustainability, homelessness, clean water, or horsemanship, students grow as creative, restorative Kingdom Builders and Storytellers in a world that needs humble servant leaders.

Innovative Explorers
In today’s fast-moving, tech-driven world, students need more than exposure, they need a strong foundation in innovation. At New Covenant School, even our youngest learners explore STEM, digital literacy, and invention education through hands-on coding, robotics, design thinking, and real-world problem-solving. These experiences spark curiosity, build confidence, and develop essential 21st-century skills. Rooted in Christ, our students grow into innovative, purposeful leaders ready to serve and shape their world.
