What is Kindergarten Early Commitment?
PURPOSE:
To allow families who know they want to send their kindergarten student to Covenant for the 2024-2025 school year to make an early commitment!
By making an early commitment to our 2024-2025 kindergarten class, families will be able to lock in the 2023-2024 tuition rate for their child’s kindergarten year at Covenant.
Tuition for Kindergarten Early Commitment
Half Day: $5840 per year or 12 monthly payments of $487.
Full Day: $8680 per year or 12 monthly payments of $723.
Families may also apply for financial aid.

Do you have a child who will be in kindergarten next year? Come take a tour at Covenant Christian Academy! You will discover how the joyful culture at Covenant can ignite a love of learning in your child. You will also learn how a classical, Christian education helps to prepare each child to live a well-lived and thoughtful life.
We recommend that children not attend so that parents are able to fully engage with our faculty and staff. However, we understand that this is not always possible, and we look forward to meeting each family member who joins us.
