COOLIDGE SCHOOL HAPPENINGS!
Many good things have happened this year under the continuing leadership of Mrs. Patricia Payne, our Principal. During the month of October, our entire school took a trip to Thornridge to see a spectacular drama presentation from the drama depart on the works of Shakespeare.
In November, School District 151 and the Phoenix Public Library Board collaborated with their annual Reading to Succeed contest, which carried over into their family reading night. Coolidge student participation exceeded this year more than previously.
The Black History program was held in February, dedicating and reflecting upon famous women of our past, present and future. During this program, the students and staff took a special moment to say “Thank You” to Mrs. Dorothy Owens, who has dedicated forty years of her teaching career to School District 151. The celebration was wonderful! The word got out and many of her former students took part in the celebration that night. Mrs. Owens will be retiring this year, but bets are still out that she won’t be able to stay away.
On April 30th, Taylor Wells took 2nd place in the poetry contest at Thornwood. Go Taylor!
Those “hottest” happenings was in June. Our symphonic band was chosen to participate in a competition at Disney World in Florida. The Band Parents Association worked very hard to raise funds to assist those students with their trip to Disney.
Finally, congratulations to our very own Loretta Wells who was recently elected to our District 151 School Board. She is currently president of our Band Parents Association. Upcoming events are: Spring Band Concert at Thornton High School.
