I have loved my time at Covenant High School. School culture, academics, and college readiness are things this school does well, however, with only one sports team, and some hiring issues the school is having trouble attracting students. I think if the school were to continue there strength in some areas, and double-down on fixing the issues I have seen then it would be the best school for anyone in Pierce County.

A small Christian community that is very focused on God. Academically rigorous and will make most colleges look like a breeze though it is not impossible for anyone.

CHS is rich in church history, a conservative culture and academics. The administration and teachers are committed to Christian education and excellent preparation for College. The music and art departments are truly outstanding.

The staff and faculty are genuinely interested in the students. The student body is small enough so...
