Groundbreaking Ceremony

Our students were invited to be a part of the Groundbreaking Ceremony for Airport Road Intermediate School that is slated to open 2009. The current first graders at Coosada will be the first class to attend this school. The site where the school is located is absolutely beautiful. The children did an excellent job and seemed to really enjoy the ceremony. We are all very excited about the new facility!

THANK YOU LOWES IN PRATTVILLE

We received a $5,000.00 grant from Lowe's Toolbox this summer to help support our efforts in building a new playground. We were very appreciative of that monetary donation and quickly spent it on play equipment for our students. It was a special surprise this January when Patrick Meehan called our school offering labor and supply donations to our school! We, of course, said, "YES, YES, YES!". His group came out in the pouring,freezing rain for several days in a row to complete these special projects for our students. The Gazebo adjacent to the playground and the picnic tables were completely donated by Patrick's team from Lowe's. They also made the ramp going in to our Dr. Suess house and landscaped nicely around the playhouse. We are very appreciative of their extra effort for our students. We look forward to using our picnic area in the Spring. Thank you to all the volunteers from Lowe's who came out to work for our children. Parents please spend your money at Lowe's, because they definitley support local public education!

2nd Grade Field Trip

Many of our 2nd grade classes went on a field trip to Bama Lanes. They were discussing fractions in Math and were able to relate it real life as they knocked down only a "fraction" of the pins. I wonder if Ms. McGaskill knocked them all down for a STRIKE? It looks like they had a great time on this trip!

PTO February 19th

The Yellow Pods performed this evening and did a GREAT JOB! The PTO discussed the upcoming Spring Fling (April 12th) and expressed a need for volunteers to pull off this special event. If you are interested in volunteering at our Spring Fling please call the school and we will put you in touch with our PTO President. It is always a fun filled event for our children.

The PTO also has artwork items for sale. Your child produced a special piece of art at the beginning of the school year after a study of a famous artist. This artwork has been reproduced on a magnet. The company also offers T-shirts, aprons, coffe mugs.. and the list goes on and on. These will be available at our next PTO meeting in March. We will also hold an Arts Festival April 22nd. This will be the last day to buy your child's special piece of artwork.
