It is hard to imagine that the school year is going by so quickly and spring is upon us. We are almost halfway through Marking Period 3. The final lap is in sight!
Cove Road students were busy raising money for charity in February. 43 students registered for the Kids Heart Challenge and raised over $2,563.00. Ms. Evanowski's homeroom had the most students registered, and also raised the most money of all classes. The top fundraiser for the school was Derek S. Thank you to all who participated!
