Week 12 has concluded! This week came with it's share of hurdles, but we've been able to get over them. We have had to exclude a few students to quarantine for 2 weeks due to outside exposure to positive COVID cases, and a coach tested positive as well. Thanks to our safety protocols, exposure to other students and staff members was very minimal. As the holiday season approaches, please remember to use all precautions possible to stay safe and healthy. Keeping our school open depends on all of us working together.

Sixth grade students are thankful to our Veterans and service people. The letters in the attached document were written from the heart. They are not part of an assignment and are not graded. Their beliefs are genuine and true, much like your service. Thank you Veterans!

Cove School District is carefully tracking the situation regarding the county-wide increase in COVID-19 cases. As of today school is on a normal schedule for all classes as we begin the week on Monday. A few students have moved to Comprehensive Distance Learning temporarily due to exposures outside the school. Within the school, we have yet to receive a report of a confirmed case. Please continue to adhere to all mitigation practices.
