If you cAre about your kids don't send them here, coming from a past student. Kids are out of control and the teachers do nothing. One girl was literally doing cartwheels Around the classroom and the teacher didn't say anything.

this school is really on top of things. i have informed them of issues at my sons last school and it has made a huge difference that the classes are smaller and the teachers are informative.

The worst school in the district. From personal experience and mirrors what I have heard from every other parent that has had a child attend here.

My student left this school last year when we moved, nothing was ever done about them being bullied...I'm happy to say we're now in a school that's truely zero tolerance for bullying.

My daughter was bullied for 5 years at Covington by the same person while staff and administration did nothing. Her 5th grade ended in a no-contact order with the student since they were put in the same grade level. Do what you can to not have your child go here, it's not a safe place for someone who is "timid" because district administration will then inform your child that they can see why they were bullied...

We recently left Covington and at their new school I found out that both of my daughter were horribly behind in math and had been taught the block ten incorrectly, with the help of the new teachers my daughter are now advanced in math!! My oldest was bullied so badly at Covington school that she still has problems trusting other kids to be nice and for adults to listen to what she is telling them.
