Covenant Christian School is an alternative Christian program within the Black Gold School Division, whose core purpose is: “Flourishing Learners, Delighting in God, Inspired to Serve.” Covenant offers a Christ-centred education to approximately 400 students in kindergarten to grade nine. As such, we teach the Alberta curriculum from a Christian perspective, using a framework called Teaching for Transformation (TfT). This framework integrates ten key discipleship concepts into all teaching and learning. See ccs.blackgold.ca for more information.
