Dear Covington Families,
Welcome back! We hope you had a relaxing and enjoyable Spring Break with your loved ones. As we return, we’re not only gearing up for some exciting events, but we’re also entering the final quarter of the school year—a critical time for focus, growth, and celebrating all the progress our students have made.
To kick things off, don’t forget that ColtsFest is THIS Saturday, March 29th! It’s one of our favorite community events of the year, filled with games, food, music, and fun for the whole family. This year, we’re especially excited to host our 1st Annual Salsa Competition! Whether your salsa is sweet, spicy, or somewhere in between, we’d love to have you join in the fun.
As we begin this last quarter, we’re also in the final countdown to STAAR 2025, which begins in just a few weeks. This is a great time to help your child finish strong. Here are a few ways you can support their success at home:
Set a structured evening routine that includes time for homework, reading, and review
Ensure 8–10 hours of sleep each night to help with focus and retention
Encourage healthy eating, starting with a good breakfast
Stay informed by checking grades, teacher updates, and Schoology regularly
Limit screen time during the week to prioritize rest and study
Talk with your child about their goals and how they’re feeling about upcoming tests
Reach out to teachers or counselors if you need support or have questions
Thank you for being our partners as we guide students through these final weeks. With your continued support, we know our Colts will finish the year strong and proud!
