In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s Day of Service, East Fallowfield is partnering with David's Drive to help support our local veterans. We will begin collecting today, Monday, January 6th through Friday, January 17th. Please check the list below of items we are collecting. To make the collection a little more competitive, each homeroom will collect items separately and the homeroom with the highest number of items on the 17th will win a movie party! Thank you in advance for your support!

On Friday, January 3, 2025, the Coatesville Area School District held the annual Elementary Spelling Bee at Rainbow Elementary School. We are so proud to announce that East Fallowfield's own, Rachel Clippenger, won 2nd place in the spelling bee amongst all third grade competitors across the district! We are so proud of her and all of our participants who represented East Fallowfield so well!

Mrs. Cloud and her students put their creativity and problem solving skills to the test last week. Students created balloon floats after reading Balloons over Broadway. Then they programmed the bee bots to carry the floats along a parade route. How amazing!

The Citadel Heart of Learning nominations are out! Please take a moment to nominate an amazing Coatesville teacher today! Nominations are due by January 15, 2025.

Dear CASD Parents, Guardians, and Families,

I am very pleased to share with you that the Coatesville Area School District will begin offering a free mental health and substance abuse counseling service referral system to connect our students, their families, and our employees and their families, to services – as a way to make finding help easier and faster.

Thanks to grant funding, the district has begun a relationship with a care services connector called Care Solace that specializes in helping people navigate what is often a very complex mental healthcare system.

Care Solace does not diagnose or provide treatment, but they will quickly connect you with a licensed professional who can. Care Solace takes on the lengthy intake process so that you don’t have to call multiple providers and walk through the same process each time. Care Solace counselors will connect you with providers accepting all kinds of insurance, including Medicaid, Medicare, and sliding scale options for families without insurance. All information shared with Care Solace is completely confidential.

You can access Care Solace services by calling 888-515-0595 at any time. You can also visit the Care Solace website at: caresolace.com/casdschools or you can access the homepage for the CASD website, www.casdschools.org to access the Care Solace Link.

Multilingual support is available 24/7, every day. Once you reach out via phone or online, a Care Companion will:
• Discuss what services you child or any member of your family might need
• Secure an appointment for you so you can begin services
• Follow up with you to make sure progress is being made

This service is completely optional and is provided at no cost. Several school districts across the state have a partnership with Care Solace. If you need immediate assistance in the event of a life-threatening emergency, please call 911 or the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255.

If you have any questions about this service, please contact your student's guidance counselor or building administrator. You can also reach me at snyderm@casdschools.org.

Sincerely,

Michele Snyder
Director of Pupil Services
