Happy Holidays,

The sense of excitement and fun is palpable on campus as we head into the last day before our two week winter break. As the calendar year comes to a close, I look back with pride at the great work everyone- students, staff, and parents- have accomplished since our start date way back in August.

From an awesome solar eclipse viewing, a successful (yet postponed) Walk-a-thon, the implementation of Reader’s Workshop in our classrooms, music concerts, and the enormous generosity of our community to help out families in both the North Bay and in Texas, Covington has done some great work that we all can be proud of!

We have a lot to feel good about so far! I want to thank our amazing staff for their hard work and dedication. We are very grateful for the generosity of our PTA and LAEF- for without them, we cannot offer the exceptional education we give our students. Lastly, a huge thank you to our parent community for their patience during our solar panel construction project is also an order. Unfortunately, I am going to ask for your continued patience as the fencing around our parking lot will not be down when we return on Jan. 2nd. Rest assured, the project will be done soon.

Wishing you a restful and relaxing break.

Wade Spenader, Principal
