Family Referral Incentive Program
Covenant 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 for next year, we do have limited openings still available. Contact the Office of Admissions: admissions@ccamail.org or click here for more info. |
Join Us for our Annual Post-Field Day Family Picnic!

Varsity Ultimate Frisbee
Monday, May 12: CCA 15, Gann 12
The Varsity Ultimate Frisbee team enjoyed a fantastic game on a sunny day with a refreshing breeze, taking on a strong Gann Academy squad. In a well-fought rematch, they secured a 15-12 victory, showing impressive endurance and consistency throughout the game. Mikey Graves led the scoring with six goals, using his speed and height to dominate in the end zone. Elliot Smith followed with three goals, while Tristan Vieira led in assists with six. Mikey added five assists, and Simeon Yen contributed four. The highlight score of the game came from Evie Crowell, who impressively tracked down a floating disc among four defenders. Defensively, the team performed with confidence, seamlessly switching between zone and man coverage. Caleb Hoeman stood out with multiple disruptions in the middle of the field and also added two goals to the scoreboard.
