Coming to Covenant Day School

Dear Parents and Friends, Since the beginning of this school year, a joint Covenant Day School/Christ Covenant Church long range planning committee has been meeting to plan for facilities expansion to meet the needs of both the school and the church. The school’s needs and the church’s needs overlap in many areas, but they diverge in a few. Our top priority for the school is permanent classroom space for our Lower School children that will do away with modular units. The church’s top priority is similar. The church needs more adult Sunday school classrooms and large meeting space. These needs are compatible for one major construction project. Much remains to be done before the committee gets to the point of finalizing such a project. It is also likely that a capital campaign will need to planned and launched before building plans are finally approved.
But, there is a second priority for the school that is not tied to major building construction and not subject to any delay. That is our need for expanded space for our athletic programs. Christ Covenant’s leadership has approved your school board’s request to immediately begin raising funds for our planned development of additional athletic field space at Warner Park. Warner Park is 26 acres in total area. Of this, only nine acres have already been developed. Now, as the funds are raised, we will be able to develop the remaining 17 acres as quickly as possible. Our plans call for a baseball field appropriate for varsity play at the 3-A level and several new practice fields for soccer. These will be in addition to the currently developed fields. We are excited to see what God will do as we begin this new phase of growth. We believe that our students gain important skills for life as they are involved in athletics, and we want to encourage even more participation as Warner Park is developed. All of our CDS families and friends of the school are invited to be a part of the Warner Park project through your prayers for God’s provision and through gifts to help the work begin soon. To learn more about the future of Warner Park and how you can help, please call Mike Mara at 704.708.6167 or email him at mmara@covenantday.org. With gratitude and anticipation, Dr. Märni Halvorson |

Purify (him/ her) from all unrighteousness. |
