This past Wednesday our Advanced Strings and Chorus groups held their winter concert. During the school day, all of our students got to enjoy their wonderful performance. Special thanks to Mr. Renne, our strings teacher, Mrs. Capurso and Mrs. Dinkov, our chorus teachers, for making this winter concert a success! |

Special Thanks to Navy Elementary and their PTA for organizing a Winter Coat Drive for our families at Coates Elementary. Due to their donations we were able to help our students and famlies with coats, snacks and Walmart gift cards. We appreicate your support during this holiday season! |
As a reminder, winter break will be held December 19 to January 2. To help make sure you and your children have a restful break, we have asked that no homework be assigned during this time. Teachers may assign long-range assignments in the weeks ahead of the break, allowing students to practice time management skills, but no assignments will be due immediately following the break. We look forward to welcoming students back in the new year.Classes resume on Tuesday, Jan. 3, 2023. See the complete 2022-23 school year calendar.
The Coates Elementary main office will be closed for winter break. For anything urgent, please email our Administrative Assistant, Jackie Cruz at jecruz@fcps.edu.
We recognize that holidays are an important time to reconnect with family and expose children to their heritage and culture, whether they grew up in another part of the United States or a different country. If your family’s holiday plans include extended travel, please remember the impact to your children’s education if they miss too much school. Visit our website for more attendance resources.
Attend today, achieve tomorrow!
