Thank you to Mrs. Mapes for coordinating our Week of Respect activities last week. These activities allowed us to celebrate all that we do all year long to promote kindness and respect. I am proud of our students who demonstrate leadership in this area throughout the year and who make an effort to support a strong school community. 

Student Council campaigns are in full swing for our 5th-grade students with speeches and voting taking place this Friday. We are impressed with the number of students who are “running for office” and have taken part in the democratic process at Coolidge School. I hope many 4th and 5th grade students attend Student Council meetings this year as active and contributing citizens of our school community. 

The Coolidge Cougar made an appearance at drop-off on Wednesday for Walk to School Day. It was awesome to see so many families walking with their children to school. Thank you to the Coolidge Cougar for greeting our students and to Mr. Cosman for sharing your “walking-themed” playlist with us to make for a festive event!

School Picture Day will take place on Monday, October 16th. More information will be provided this week regarding that event.
