As we head into Week 3 of the school year, I want to begin by thanking everyone who joined us for Back-to-School Night last week. It was wonderful to see so many of our parents and families in the building, meeting teachers, visiting classrooms, and learning more about what your students will experience this year. We had a great turnout, and I hope we continue to see even more of our families on campus throughout the year.

What a great start to the school year! It was wonderful to see the excitement and energy our students brought into the building during our first week. Whether reconnecting with old friends, meeting new classmates and teachers, or simply figuring out how to navigate a new schedule and routine, our students did an outstanding job adjusting to the start of the year. Thank you, parents and families, for your patience, flexibility, and partnership as we worked through the many moving parts that come with opening a new school year.
Covington Connection Welcome Back! Ausgust 17-21st 2026
The first day of school is almost here! On Tuesday, we officially begin a new school year at Covington Middle School. I am excited to welcome our returning students and families, our many new Colts joining us this year, and especially our incoming 6th-grade families making the transition from elementary to middle school. We know this transition brings excitement, anticipation, and maybe a few nerves for students and parents.
One More Week!
Welcome to the Covington community! We are just a little over a week away from the beginning of what promises to be an exciting school year, and the energy and anticipation are already building throughout our campus. I am truly honored to serve Covington for another year and especially grateful to be part of this important chapter in our school's story. This year, we have the incredible opportunity to welcome so many new students, families, faculty, and staff while continuing to build upon the traditions and strengths that have made Covington special. As we come together, I have no doubt that there is a great future ahead of us.
