Notes from the Coulston Office November 10, 2023
This week at Coulston
Attendance DID YOU KNOW... Showing up on time daily is important to your child’s success and learning from preschool forward. Missing 10% of school (1 or 2 days every few weeks) can make it harder to: • Gain early reading and math skills, • Build relationships. • Develop good attendance habits. Veterans Day We want to thank Mrs. Epple and the fourth-grade students for their wonderful program honoring all of our veterans. From the singing to the piano solo by one of our fourth-grade students to the drum routine...it was awesome!!! To all of our veterans, THANK YOU, and Happy Veterans Day. Thanksgiving Break Parents, Thanksgiving Break will be from November 22-24. We will NOT have school on those days. Drug-Free Calendar Poster Contest We would like to congratulate the following Coulston Comets who were winners of this year's annual Prosecuting Attorney's Drug-Free Calendar Poster Contest. Their posters will be presented in the Drug-Free Calendar that is handed out in the community. Again, congratulations and we are proud of you! 5th Grade 1st place - Lucio T. 2nd place - Lainy M.

Students can bring in $1.00 to buy a ticket for a chance to Pie the Guy at our convocation in December. Our volunteers are Mr. Baldwin, Mr. Bunton, Mr. Brown, Mr. Nolley, Mr. Snow, and Mr. Stewart! Thanks in advance for supporting this community event. Cell Phones: Parents, we need your help!!! This is just a reminder that students are NOT to have cell phones out in school or on the buses. Please make sure you remind your child about the cell phone policy. We are having issues with students and the appropriate use of the cell phone. Please know in advance if the rules are not followed, the cell phone will be put in the front office, and the parent will need to pick it up at school. Thank you in advance for your help with this issue. This week at Coulston, our teachers and students have been busy! This week in Mrs. Ogles's classroom students learned about place value and how to convert base ten blocks to decimals, and then decimals to fractions. Great job fourth grade! In art class, Mrs. Quellhorst worked with fifth-grade students in creating art from aluminum foil. The student enjoyed being able to select the pictures for this project. Keep working hard Coulston Comets!!! Asistencia ¿SABÍA USTED... Llegar a tiempo todos los días es importante para el éxito y el aprendizaje de su hijo desde el preescolar en adelante? Faltar el 10% de la escuela (1 o 2 días cada pocas semanas) puede hacer que sea más difícil: • Adquirir habilidades tempranas de lectura y matemáticas, • Construir relaciones. • Desarrollar buenos hábitos de asistencia.
