Family Referral Incentive ProgramCovenant has a Family Referral Incentive Program to both incentivize and reward CCA parents and employees who help us welcome mission-aligned families to our community. Our parents, students, and employees are our best ambassadors, sharing their positive experiences at Covenant with friends, family, and acquaintances.
Current CCA families, as well as faculty and staff members, can receive a $500 referral bonus for each new family that they refer (who then applies to CCA, is accepted, and enrolls for the 2025–2026 school year). The Family Referral Program does not apply to immediate family members or persons living in the same household.
While many grade levels have already reached capacity, we do have limited openings still available for the 2025-2026 school year. Contact the Office of Admissions: admissions@ccamail.org or click here for more info. |

Summer Reminders From The CCA Health Office
Medication Pick-Up Please be sure to pick-up your child’s medication at the nurse’s table outside of the PAAC tomorrow before/after the GS Awards Ceremony. If your child had medications stored at school that you forget to pick up on their final day of school, they will be held for one week only. Please call the main office at 978-535-7100 to schedule medication pick-up the week of June 9th – June 13th. A parent/guardian signature will be required at pick-up. Any medications left at school after that point will be discarded per school policy.
Physical Exams Updated physical exams are required by the state for students every 3 years, and annually for students who participate in athletics. They are also required annually for students with a life threatening allergy, asthma, those with ongoing medical conditions, and for students who require medication administration in school. If your child has a physical exam over the summer, please remember to upload it in your Magnus account.
Vaccinations Additionally, there are state vaccine requirements for students within a certain grade, for which the school completes a required survey annually. If your child is entering Pre-K, Kindergarten, 7th, or 12th grade in the fall, please be sure to discuss vaccinations with your child’s pediatrician to make sure they meet the requirements. For those who have a medical or religious exemption for immunizations, it needs to be renewed annually and submitted through Magnus.
Magnus Health Beginning August 1st, all families will be required to log into their Magnus accounts to confirm and update student health information for the 2025-2026 school year. This includes providing annual permissions for over-the-counter medications at school, submitting action plans for students with life threatening allergies or asthma, uploading any new medication orders, etc. Please watch for updates and reminders emailed from the CCA health office during the summer months.
If you have any questions, please email the school nurse, Christen Ashley, at school.nurse@ccamail.org. Be safe, stay healthy, and have a wonderful summer! |

Coda Trips: Students Making Memories
The USLR Coda trips wrapped up with the last buses arriving back Saturday evening. By its very nature, a Coda is a different ending to a piece of work (literary, dramatic, musical). While the classroom is a wonderful place to learn, the opportunity to venture out of the predictable spaces where routines have been established can energize learning in some special ways. Coda is an opportunity for students to complete the academic year with something more than the pressure of studying for exams. It is a time for students to have a shared experience of traveling and living together as a group. Some special bonding happens during this time that strengthens class morale and unity. It allows students and teachers to “meet” one another in a new and different way, in a much different setting than every day. Thus, Coda trips serve to round out, conclude, and oftentimes summarize the experiences of the academic year while at the same time provide an opportunity to do something of interest with their peers.
Here are the places each grade traveled this year:
7th – 10th Grades: Lake Saranac Young Life Camp, Saranac, NY
11th Grade: La Vida Adirondack Expeditions Base Camp, Upstate NY
12th Grade: Cape Cod, MA
AP Physics Field Trip
Mr. Smith’s AP Physics students visited the UMass Lowell research reactor, where they explored topics such as radiation, radioactivity, nuclear power, and the inner workings of a nuclear reactor.
