NOTE: KINDERGARTEN DISCOUNT FOR 2010-2011!
In recognizing that young families are experiencing economic challenges unseen in years, the Board of Trustees of CDS has made available funds to benefit families of kindergartners for 2010-2011. Families with three or more children enrolled will continue to benefit from the multi-child discount. However, if you do not qualify for the multi-child discount and are enrolling a kindergarten student, there will be a Kindergarten Discount of $1,500 for those who are active and supporting members of Christ Covenant Church and $1,000 for those with memberships at other local churches. For more details, please call the Admissions Department at 704.708.6127.

KINDERGARTEN OPTIONS AT CDS
TRANSITIONAL KINDERGARTEN
Transitional Kindergarten is an excellent choice for children who would benefit from an extra year before beginning Kindergarten at Covenant Day School. Children are nurtured and loved in an environment where learning is both engaging and fun. The program is designed to enhance developmental skills important to Kindergarten readiness, such as visual and auditory perception skills, language skills, and fine and gross motor skills. Special classes include music, library, and P.E. Our TK faculty create a safe atmosphere where early learning is developed in a positive and supportive manner.

KINDERGARTEN
Covenant Day Kindergarten is an exciting experience, filled with discoveries and wonders around every corner. Dedicated and loving faculty provide a quality program where each child is given optimal opportunities to explore the environment and develop individual talent and potential. Covenant Day provides a supportive atmosphere and skilled faculty to facilitate each child’s learning. A variety of enrichment classes such as music, American Sign Language, P.E., and library provide our students with experiences that give them a holistic view of God’s creation.
