I could not be more excited or honored to be leading this one-of-a-kind school community. Our mission at Cove is meant for everyone. We all- students, teachers, staff and parents- inquire, think critically, collaborate, explore and create. It is safe to take risks and pursue passions.

At Cove, students come first. We strive to offer an education based on research about how children learn best. We nurture curiosity and a joy of learning. We learn through a multidisciplinary approach, and utilize facilities and technologies to individualize each child’s experience.

Our beautiful, awe-inspiring campus is comprised of carefully designed, flexible indoor and outdoor learning spaces. Students move freely throughout the day, learning both collaboratively and on their own. Teachers are guides and learning leaders, partnering with students to facilitate their growth. We have an incredibly talented staff working with our children each day. We are all learners at Cove, and we embrace the challenges and excitement that come with an ever-changing world. 

The energy around Cove is palpable. Students create their own leadership opportunities - developing a safety patrol, a green team, a no bully program and hosting fundraisers, book swaps, educational assemblies and more. Parents are an essential part of our Cove fabric through their involvement and support of SPARK (our district-wide parent foundation), the Cove PTO, the School Site Council, classroom volunteering and more. I am truly grateful for their unwavering hard work and dedication to providing high quality programs in our school.

I invite you to learn more about The Cove School, our Guiding Principles, our campus, and our welcoming and inclusive community. What an amazing place to be!
