Overview
The Oaks Adventist Christian School opened in the fall of 2003.
The school opened with a vision to serve Houston families who were looking for alternatives to public school, and wanting their children to learn in a spiritual environment.
As a growing school we are excited about the opportunities which God has given us, and believe that this is His school with a plan greater than ourselves.
The elementary program at The Oaks is run by experienced, energetic faculty.
Our student focused approach allows for accelerated students to join other classes, as well as make modifications as needed for others.
The classrooms are Christ-focused with a balance of center based and teacher directed education.
Our High School program is developing and full of energy.
Covenant Academy is a classical Christian school in northwest Houston fully accredited by Advanc-ED. Our school exists to cultivate leaders equipped to honor and defend truth, goodness, and beauty.
We partner with parents to train students by way of Scripture and the classical liberal arts to be discerning, articulate followers of Jesus Christ.
Covenant Academy is committed to teaching all subjects as part of an integrated whole with the Scriptures at the center and to pursuing academic excellence that is defined and measurable.
We desire to cultivate thinking, articulate students who are able to accumulate facts, reason to sound conclusions, and persuasively convey those conclusions.
