The Covenant School of Dallas

Mission and Purpose

Covenant exists to glorify God by equipping students with the tools necessary to pursue a lifetime of learning so that they may discern, reason, and defend truth in service to our Lord, Jesus Christ.

The purpose of classical Christian education is the formation of an authentic human being. This is a soul-shaping endeavor. Covenant equips children to learn independently, think critically, analyze logically, and express themselves with clarity and purpose.

The Covenant Fund Projects

Your gift to The Covenant School provides much-needed resources for our most pressing needs through the The Covenant Fund Projects. The Covenant Fund supports student experience, teacher development, highest priority projects, and tuition assistance, touching every area of the school.  It equips teachers and staff with the tools they need to serve our students. It strengthens the facilities, programs, and curriculum at the School. Importantly, it supports much needed funding for tuition assistance to make classical Christian education affordable for qualified students.

We a $2.42M two-year goal to fund these projects. Gifts to Covenant through North Texas Giving Day, the Community Partners Program, the Knight Vision Golf Tournament, the Auction, and general giving are all ways to help us reach our goal.

Student Experience

Gifts above and beyond tuition dollars enhance the educational opportunities of our students and maintain high standards beyond what tuition alone can cover. Fundraising helps bridge the gap between tuition revenue and the actual cost of delivering a well-rounded education, allowing Covenant to offer enriching programs, improve facilities, and provide tuition assistance so all students can thrive.

Teacher Development

Our teachers are the hands and feet of our mission. Supporting our teachers' well-being and professional development is primary to our annual goals. Covenant has a three-year cycle of professional development to ensure that all Covenant teachers receive regular training and support in three areas: (1) classical philosophy and methods of teaching and learning; (2) Charlotte Mason’s principles and practices; and (3) classics of theology and spiritual formation such as Augustine’s Confessions. Together, these efforts ensure that Covenant continues to grow into its identity as a national leader in classical Christian education.

Highest Priority Project

Our beloved Frank Miller Field is aging and both the turf and concrete base must be replaced by 2027.  It is a big project in the realm of $1.5M+ so we're going to take 2 years to tackle it. The Frank Miller Field Special Project will include a new turf field as well as a much-needed new concrete slab. The life of the turf will be extended to the maximum use-life that is safe, getting as much possible use out of one of our favorite amenities on campus. We will use the opportunity to shift the field slightly closer to LBJ, giving us an extra foot of sideline space in front of the bleachers.

Tuition Assistance

Your generous giving enables Covenant to come alongside families when they need it most by providing tuition assistance. Families link arms with other families in this educational journey, walking through life together in both the good times and bad. Our community is proud to support one in three-to-four students with tuition assistance in a given year. When families give generously to Covenant above and beyond tuition dollars, we give the gift of Christ-centered, classical education to many students and families who could not otherwise afford it that year. It is our heart to have an economically diverse community, and we are grateful for your support!

Our community is dedicated to fostering a culture of Christian hospitality, belonging, and "love of neighbor" for everyone, including all guests who visit. Your partnership makes a difference for Covenant students, families, faculty, and alumni now and in the future.

We are grateful to the Communities Foundation of Texas for covering all transaction fees, so 100% of all donations go directly to Covenant.

Thank you for your support, and Non Nobis!
