Principal's Message
Hello Covington Community!
In just one week, we'll be celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week! Let's come together to express our gratitude to our incredible teachers for their dedication and hard work throughout the year. They've gone above and beyond for our school community, and as the summer approaches, let's wish them a well-deserved break.
In sports news, congratulations to our boys' tennis team for their recent victory! Their hard work and determination paid off, showcasing the true spirit of Covington Middle School athletics. Way to go! Also, to our girls and boys' track and field athletes who will be competing next week in Zone Championships, for sprints, long distance and field events. We wish you the best of luck! Meanwhile, our dancers shined in a captivating dance performance last night, demonstrating their talent and creativity on stage.
Looking ahead, mark your calendars for the upcoming tennis matches next week, where both our boys and girls teams will be competing. Let's show our support as they continue to represent Covington Middle School with pride and sportsmanship!
Stay tuned for more exciting updates and events from our vibrant school community. Go Colts!
Principal for the Day,
