Another new phone number

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Moving into new location

Monday, June 9th, 2008

Covenant Academy has been located at Cypress Bible Church since the school began in 2003. We are now in the process of moving into our beautiful new location about 10 minutes west of our previous home.

Our old phone number is supposed to ring at our old office for the rest of the week. The new phone number is (281) 758-3200, though we’re having a little trouble with that number today as we get things set up. Our web site and email have not changed.
