Aligned with the Elmont Union Free School District’s mission of reaching and teaching for excellence, Covert Avenue Elementary School is committed to helping every child grow, learn, and succeed. As a supportive community of learners, we provide engaging instruction that encourages students to reach their personal goals and achieve academic excellence.
Our curriculum across all grade levels is aligned with the New York State Next Generation Learning Standards and focuses on critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, and real-world learning experiences. At Covert Avenue, we are preparing students for future success in school and beyond.
In partnership with families, we are dedicated to educating the whole child. We intentionally foster character development and social-emotional growth while modeling the values of confidence, respect, honesty, citizenship, and tolerance. Guided by our motto, “Children for a Better Tomorrow,” we work together to help every Covert Avenue student reach their full potential.
