"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America..." Thank you to the Dickenson, Bales, and Tucker families for helping me add such a beautiful and meaningful piece of local art to our classroom!
Hi everyone! Mrs. Tucker here! As you can see we are hiring a couple of new teachers including a 5th grade teacher. I wanted to let you know that I am not leaving Cove. I am moving up to 8th grade! While moving my classroom seems a little daunting I am excited for this new adventure. I look forward to continuing to teach and inspire our students at a higher grade level. Thank you for all of your continued support!

Football is coming -- we get to have a padded full-contact football season at the high school level!

I encourage all who have considered playing football to take advantage of this short season!
BRRRRRR!
The weather got cold and many of us did not have our winter clothes. Try to remember warm clothes because we have recess outside everyday rain or shine. If your child needs a coat, hat, gloves or boots let their classroom teacher know. We have clothes to keep them warm head to toe!

Happy Valentines Day from kindergarten!
Week 24 of in-person school is all but over! Our week started with reopening the playground from 7:30-7:50 am for our students to be able to play before school starts. The kids were buzzing with excitement at getting one more thing back to normal. It's a good day to be a Leopard!
Please remember to use the student pick up and drop off area (located on Haefer Lane just past the Elementary School building) before and after school. For safety reasons, elementary students wait for parents/guardians or older siblings in the pick up area and are not to walk to the High School. Thank you for helping us keep our students safe.
Cove students had a blast learning to ski and snowboard up at Anthony Lakes!
January is all but over, and we have completed our 22nd week of in-person school. Time flies when you're having fun! Thanks to our community's efforts and support of our health and safety protocols, our students and staff members have been able to stay in school. Keep up the great work. It's a great day to be a leopard!

I am having a good time teaching the seventh graders science this semester. I wanted to take some time to share a few of the videos that were created to describe the cell cycle. Video is not very easy, but the students worked hard to create some stop motion that might help others learn as well. Check out the links below.

Parents: Please remember that the school doors do not open in the mornings until 7:30. Students who arrive before 7:30 have to stand out in the cold until then. The cafeteria doors open at 7:20, so that students have time to eat breakfast before school.
