Welcome
Middle School is the time when our children need to be grasping hold of faith for themselves, and not because their parents tell them it’s right. The Cove keeps the emphasis on serving, leadership and fun while deepening the concepts that the students are learning. Retreats and mission trips appropriate to this age group give students a new perspective on life.

Compass
(8th Grade)
Compass meets approximately twice per month on Sunday nights and runs from September-May.

We look forward to the privilege of investing this important time in your children!
