Honor Societies

The National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation's premier organization established to recognize outstanding high school students in grades 10, 11, and 12. More than just an honor roll, NHS serves to recognize those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. These characteristics have been associated with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1921.

The Covenant Academy Chapter was established in the spring of 2017 with the purpose to complement the school’s mission and create an enthusiasm for scholarship, stimulate a desire to render service, promote worthy leadership, and encourage the development of character in students of Covenant Academy.

Math Olympiad Team (Grades 4-6)

MOEMS (Math Olympiads for Elementary and Middle Schools, Inc.) is an international program that offers math problem solving contests for teams in grades 4 through 8 designed to enrich, excite, and energize students and stimulate a love for mathematics. I am excited for this new adventure to grow students in this joy of learning and create a thrill of meeting challenges.

The program is a year-round program with monthly tests that occur November through March. Covenant currently has one elementary team of 4th-6th graders, which meets weekly from October to the end of March to be coached through problem solving strategies and skills using prior tests and published “problems of the month” each week.

Participation in this is optional, but like other before and after school activities comes with a program fee of $100 each semester.
