Good afternoon Comet Families. Click here to view this week's Comet Connection newsletter. -https://www.smore.com/tf625 Meet the Teacher Night has been rescheduled!!!! Parents we are going to try this again!!!..... Meet the teacher night will be Monday, August 14 from 5:30 -6:30 pm. We are still under renovation and have some areas of the building that will not be accessible. Just a reminder that the Kindergarten classrooms are temporarily down the Art hall. Since space will be limited, we are asking all visitors to come and visit your Child's classroom, drop off any additional items for the classroom, and make room for others who are also coming to visit this evening. Thanks so much for your patience during this time! Parking is available in both parking lots in the front of the building, as well as the back lot. You may also enter the flagpole door and main entrance. We are looking forward to seeing everyone Monday evening!

Good afternoon parents! Tomorrow is our first full day of school, and we are excited to see all of our Coulston Comets. A reminder tomorrow is a normal school day, and not an early release day. Please see the attached item for car rider drop-off/pick-up information. Please remember that in the first few days the line moves a little slower, so please be patient! If you have not picked up your car rider tag, please do so before the end of school Wednesday. Last year's car rider tags cannot be used this year. Here are a few tips to assist in the line flowing more smoothly: Give yourself plenty of time. Give all of the hugs and kisses prior to pulling up! Make sure your child has their backpack etc. ready to go when exiting the car. Do not get out of the car, as this becomes dangerous with all of the car traffic. We appreciate your help keeping everyone safe in the car rider line! If your child will be riding the bus, parents can find the information on Infofinder at http://www.infofinderi.com/ifi/?cid=SCS5QTZ7SAUC . Please look over the bus information prior to school starting on Wednesday. We are asking that you be patient the first few days, as the buses may run a little early or behind as they get used to the route. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to the school. We look forward to seeing all of the students tomorrow morning. Nicole Terrell

Transportation/Car Rider Tag Information Transportation: Bus information will be available for viewing on Monday, August 7th.

Last year's tags will NOT work. Please call the office with any questions.

Good Morning Coulston Families!! As you know we are still under renovation here at Coulston. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, we are going to need to postpone our Meet the Teacher Night to next week. This will give our construction crew time to finish up some last-minute items and have our building prepared to receive students on Wednesday morning. Please know that our staff is prepared to greet each of your children on Wednesday morning and welcome them all to a new year!!! We are excited to get the 2023-24 school year started. Your child's teacher will be communicating with you this week to give you any additional information that you may need for class. Again, we are so sorry for this inconvenience, but we want to make sure that our building is safe, prepared, and ready to go for the start of school on Wednesday. Enjoy the rest of your day, and we are looking forward to seeing our Comets on Wednesday morning

We look forward to seeing you!
