Curriculum
New Covenant Academy offers its youngest Warriors, a rich developmental learning experience taught by state-certified instructors, specific to Early Childhood Education. Students have a core assigned teacher who is with them for the majority of the school day. This allows students to develop a trusting and caring relationship with their teacher. In addition, students are assigned co-curricular instructors for art, and music who have earned state certifications and/or have a high level of experience in their area of expertise. Pre-K. Teachers are on the same salary scale as the Elementary Teachers, therefore we experience less turnover than what is often occurring in the early childhood general market.
