Thank you and congratulations to all on Coy's Ohio Department of Education 4 1/2 Star Grade Card Rating!

Parent Drop-Off Reminder:

If you choose to drop your child off in the morning, drop-off time is 8:40. If you are here and waiting in the parent drop-off loop before the 8:40 drop-off time, you must remain in your vehicles for safety reasons. Please also note that you cannot park in the parent drop-off loop and leave your vehicle unattended at any time.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Third Grade Ohio State Testing in October

Third grade students will be taking the online Ohio State Reading Test on October 22-23. Please plan ahead and avoid scheduling appointments or time away from school on these days. Each testing session will be 90 minutes. You will want to make sure that your third grade student is well rested, well fed and prompt to school on October 22nd and 23rd in order to perform their best on the test. Should your child be late on either testing day, he/she will have to wait in the office until after the testing session is complete and take a make-up test at a later time. You may want to check out the 3rd grade sample test questions through the following ODE link- https://education.ohio.gov/Topics/Testing/Ohios-State-Test-in-ELA-Math-Science-SocialStudies/Sample-test-items-and-practice-tests. Each third grader must pass the Ohio State Reading Test in order to be promoted to fourth grade. Students will take the test again in April. Please encourage your child to do his/her best on the test!

Happy Friday!

Thank you all so much for bringing in items and money to use for our new therapy dog, Chance! We are so excited to bring him here and have him be a part of the Coy family! He will be here visiting with us next week for a couple of days so your student may get to see him for the first time in person!!

Happy Friday!

Just a friendly reminder, all medications (prescriptions and non-prescription) need to be kept in the nursing office. There also needs to be a form completed by a guardian for the school to administer the medication. This includes cough drops, Tylenol, Ibuprofen, cough and cold medicines.

With the cold and flu season approaching, please familiarize yourself with our District Elementary School Handbook regarding our illness policies. You will find these policies on page 20.

Have a great weekend!
