Local NFL Veteran Inspires Covenant Prep Students

Covenant Preparatory School was thrilled to welcome NFL veteran Julian Stanford to hear him speak about his time leading up to his NFL career and the importance of dedication, school work, and patience. This motivational blend resonates both on and off the field.

The Covenant Prep students were truly motivated by Mr. Stanford's visit, sharing his inspiring story of coming from a single-parent household and overcoming all types of adversities to finally fulfill his dream of playing in the NFL for 11 seasons. With Stanford being a Bloomfield native, many boys quickly related with him, as he grew up right down the street from the school!

Thank you Julian Stanford for sharing your incredible story and motivating our students towards dedication!
