Bike to School Day is Wednesday!
Did you know that Wednesday, May 9th is Bike to School Day?  In an effort to diminish automobile traffic on the streets around Covington we are encouraging students and parents to bike to school.  If you don’t want to bike, walking to school will also accomplish the goal of less cars on the street.  When biking, please remember to wear a helmet and obey all traffic laws.

Great Coyote Way Spirit at Junior Olympics
Last Saturday’s Junior Olympics offered ample opportunities for our students to give their personal best and display the character traits of the Coyote Way.  There were numerous examples of sportsmanship and compassion.  We will recognize both the athletic and sportsmanship achievements at an awards assembly later in the month.  
But, I wanted to share with you how proud I was when a parent (not from Covington) stopped me at the Junior Olympics and shared with me how impressed she was by the gracious acts of Covington students.  The entire Covington community should be proud!

Congratulations to...
Aarav Das’s team won the “Outstanding Device Performance “ award at the Tech Challenge 2018 “Drop and Dash” contest hosted by the Tech Museum of Innovation in San Jose. His team was one among a total of 12 teams to get awards in various categories, chosen out of a total of 200 teams that participated.

Thanks for all your support!
