In Middle School, school supplies are provided for 5th and 6th grade. As students mature and take on their own identity, they get to start bringing their own supplies. Families with students in 7th and 8th grades will receive an email from the office with a list of supplies to bring. You will also need to provide a spill-proof water bottle, a backpack, and a lunchbox (if you plan to pack lunches).

Travis Niemeyer
Middle School Principal
My name is Travis Niemeyer, and I’ve been the Middle School principal at Covenant Christian Academy since 2022. I believe deeply in the power of faith and purpose, a conviction shaped by my upbringing in Garland, Texas, where my Christian parents modeled a life of faith. After earning my Marketing degree from the University of North Texas and working in technology sales, a profound sense of calling led me to a career in education. I began teaching 5th-grade American History and Language Arts at Timberline Elementary in 2003. Later, I moved to Northwest ISD where I spent time teaching 7th-grade Texas History at Chisolm Trail Middle School and 5th-grade at Granger Elementary. In 2013, I stepped into an Assistant Principal role at Colleyville Middle School. My journey in education, including meeting my wife Michelle through a shared teaching role, truly reflects my belief in God’s guiding hand. Michelle and I are proud parents of three boys, two of whom have attended CCA since PK-3. Away from school, I love to read and spend quality time outdoors with my family.
When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? The first baseman for the Yankees
Why do you choose to work at CCA? I love the community of CCA. Michelle and I have been CCA parents for nine years and still have friends that began when Asher was in Pre-K 3. We have grown as parents with these friends and met many others over the years. I have told people before that one of the reasons I’m so excited about coming to CCA is that I can build a much deeper relationship with the kids and their families.
What is one fun fact about you? I am an award-winning gardener. I won two awards for my tomatoes years ago from Calloway’s Nursery (the fact that I was the only entry is purely inconsequential).
What is your favorite book of all time? As someone who loves books and reading, this is an impossible question but also one I can’t resist. Books are a passion for me. I love reading them, discussing them, and quoting them. So picking one favorite book is like picking your favorite child. In 5th grade, my teacher read Where the Red Fern Grows each day before lunch, and I loved it. However, like many boys, I was too busy and active in middle school to spend much time reading. However, Huck Finn was the book that ignited my love for reading. Wild at Heart was read at a time when I needed to be challenged not to play it safe but to make bold steps of faith. The Book Whisperer and In the Middle transformed how I taught. And The Divine Conspiracy and Celebration of Discipline challenged me to go deeper in my faith.
What is one thing that can instantly make your day better? A great worship song
What do you like to do for fun? Most anything outdoors – disc golf, hiking, camping, fishing, hunting

I have lived in the H-E-B area all of my life. I have a diverse educational background including homeschool, private school, and public school. I graduated from UT Arlington with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and later completed my post-baccalaureate teaching certification in secondary Science. My work experience includes management, event parking, and scheduling. I also worked as a medical scribe in emergency medicine and orthopedics for 3 years. CCA has been part of our family for many years; my brother- and sister-in-law are CCA alumni. My husband, Ryan, and I are excited to continue the CCA traditions with our own three children. We attend Gateway Church in North Richland Hills.
When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? A doctor
Why do you choose to work at CCA? I work at CCA because I support the school’s mission and core values. The faculty and staff at CCA are genuine followers of Christ who seek the best in themselves, each other, and their students each day. It’s an incredible blessing to work here and be so close to my kids.
