Covington School's first class graduated in 1939 and was named after Joseph Covington, a personal friend of Abraham Lincoln. He also enlisted in the Civil War, acted as a guard of honor to President Lincoln, and spent much of his life teaching in Logan, Champaign, and Cook Counties.

Thank you to all who submitted your stories to D123 4-WARD. It was a pleasure to read all the submissions. We are so proud of our alumni and the variety of paths they have taken to success. From becoming a doctor to following their entrepreneurial spirit, these graduates all exemplify what it means to be D123.

We want to hear about our alumni's successes in high school, college, and beyond! As our students graduate from D123 and move 4-Ward, we want to stay connected and hear about all the journeys taken in "tomorrow's world." Tell us stories from the classroom, the athletic field, the stage, the culinary lab, extracurricular activities, volunteer experiences, and everywhere in between. We are interested in everything our alumni have been up to since they graduated 8th grade. Fill out this form for possible inclusion in our alumni spotlight electronic newsletter, D123 4-WARD.
