Start with Hello Day Friday, Sept. 20th
Start with Hello is a day dedicated to making new social connections and creating a sense of belonging among our students. Students are encouraged to wear a shirt with a favorite team, character or saying that will help them make friends with someone else who may have similar interests. Students who feel connected at school are more likely to have higher grades and attend school more regularly. Connection helps build confidence and positivity. We hope your child will participate in making new connections by starting with hello!

We empower kids to S.H.I.N.E !!
The mission of Stagecoach Elementary is "We empower kids to SHINE." The faculty and staff believe in this mission and we want our students to believe they can SHINE in all they do!
S.H.I.N.E is an acronym that stands for:
Succeed...We will help our students succeed in all they do!
Hope... We will teach our students to have a positive, hopeful outlook!
Improve... We will work hard every day to help students grow and improve!
Navigate... We will teach students the social-emotional skills to navigate through life!
Engage... We will engage students in meaningful, relevant learning every day!
Stagecoach Student Affirmations
An affirmation is a positive statement that can help to challenge and overcome a person’s negative thoughts. When frequently repeated, they can become ingrained in our children’s minds, bodies, and hearts. Our students will begin to believe these attributes about themselves, and positive changes can happen. Self-esteem grows, kids are more confident, they work harder, and are more successful at school, home and the community.
This year, Stagecoach will be using the same five affirmation statements that we used last year. These statements can be found outside at our car and bus parking lots; they are posted on our school walls and students will hear them throughout the day. You can also say and repeat these affirmations with your student(s) as you bring them to and from school, as you’re having dinner, if your child is having a rough morning, or really anytime!
