End of Year Cafeteria Accounts

Parents this is a reminder as the year begins to wind down to check on your child’s lunch account balance. We have several students with outstanding balances that need to be paid before the year ends. If your child has an outstanding balance, please contact the cafeteria. Thanks for your help.

PTO Elections

Calling ALL parents! It is that time of the year again that we are looking to elect officers for the 2024-25 Coulston PTO. If you would like to serve on the Coulston PTO or in any capacity, please complete the PTO form that will be coming home with your child. This form will also be uploaded on our Facebook page.

New officers will be elected at the meeting in May at 6:30PM in the cafeteria. If you have any questions, please contact our current PTO President, Aleigha Simerly.

We want to thank our hardworking PTO cabinet for serving Coulston for many years. Their dedication to our Coulston Family is greatly appreciated.

Transportation Reminder-Please Read

Thank you for helping us with the transportation requests. This has helped us tremendously to make sure that we are getting students safely home after school!!!!

We are asking that any requests for a transportation change be submitted to the office no later than 1:30 pm daily. A reminder that requests must be consistent throughout the week, meaning that the pick-up and/or drop off address remains the same all week. Also please know that once a student has been put on the bus in the afternoon, we are not able to remove them to go to the car rider line. This process delays our buses from departing school on time to run their elementary route and arrive on time for their secondary route.

If your child needs to be a car rider for that day, please call the office and inform the office before 1:30 and make sure that your child has a car rider tag. It is also important you call the office for ANY changes to transportation and not the classroom teachers, this includes walkers and car riders. Fridays have also become a heavy end of the day pick-up in the office. If you could please pick your child up in the car rider line, that will help eliminate the high volume in the office. If you require an additional car rider tag, please call the office and we can provide it for you. Thanks in advance for your understanding and assistance with transportation.
