Cove 2nd Grader’s honor our Veterans with attribute buttons and learning about American symbols.

Sixth grade students are thankful to our Veterans and service people. The letters in the attached document were written from the heart. They are not part of an assignment and are not graded. Their beliefs are genuine and true, much like your service. Thank you Veterans!

Happy Veterans Day from Cove’s 2nd Grade! We would like to thank all those who have served, and are currently serving, in our Armed Forces. We appreciate the sacrifices you and your families have made for our families. We hope you can feel all the love we are sending your way!♥️

Cove School District is carefully tracking the situation regarding the county-wide increase in COVID-19 cases. As of today school is on a normal schedule for all classes as we begin the week on Monday. A few students have moved to Comprehensive Distance Learning temporarily due to exposures outside the school. Within the school, we have yet to receive a report of a confirmed case. Please continue to adhere to all mitigation practices.

Here is the latest COVID-19 Exclusion Summary Guidance to help parents/guardians decide when students should stay home from school, and for how long:

Today we start our 10th week of in-person school! We are grateful for the support of our community, parents, and students in making this possible. As you may know, school districts in our area are trying to begin in-person school, while others are having to transition to Distant Learning because of COVID. Thank you for remaining vigilant in complying with Cove School's Operational Blueprint so that we can keep our school open. Keep up the great work!
