CORONADO STAFF SHOUT-OUT!!!
Mrs. Ellington is one of our amazing 1st grade teachers! She is patient, kind, and calls her students her "besties." She holds her students accountable and not only teaches them the basics of reading, writing, and math, but she also finds the time to teach them important life skills. We are so lucky to have her!
Coronado Staff Shout-Out
Ms. Callen Richmond serves as one of our dedicated 1:1 aides. She is phenomenal at what she does. She cares deeply for the student she works with. She is fun and creative, patient, kind, and always has a smile on her face. The students adore her and we are so lucky to have her here at Coronado!
Rivalry Week competition is here! Join us in rallying to beat Round Valley while supporting our incredible teachers.
The Apache County Fair honored one of our amazing and well deserving 1st grade teachers, Mrs. Debbie Wollam, this past weekend. Her bubbly personality, team player attitude, and fun sense of humor made her an easy choice.
"This is Deb’s fifth year teaching first grade at Coronado Elementary School. Deb is always gentle, patient, and accommodating with her students. She does an outstanding job encouraging her students to work hard while creating a classroom environment that is fun and engaging. She is also a wonderful team member who is always willing to support those around her. Her kindness and dedication have made her a favorite among students and a teacher whom parents have come to know and love."

CES REMINDER: NO SCHOOL tomorrow, Friday, August 28th. Enjoy the fair!
CES REMINDER: Every FRIDAY is early release! ALL kindergarten students are released at 11:00 AM. 1st-3rd grades are released at 12:15 PM. Enjoy the weekend!
We made it through the 1st week and it was great! I assure you, your child knows how to get breakfast. They know how to get to their classrooms, and are becoming quite proficient at the morning routine! Please drop your students off in the drop off lane on the West side (back) of the building. Car congestion in the front of the building is making it difficult for residence who live on N. Water St. to pull out of their drive ways and get to work in time. It is also causing a challenge for employees to park their cars. Dropping them off also helps reduce the separation anxiety. Rip off that bandaid and watch them flourish!
CES REMINDER: Early release is EVERY FRIDAY! Kindergarten is released at 11:00 AM. 1st-3rd grades are released at 12:15 PM.
HAPPY 1st DAY!!!! Busses are out and running and pickup up students! Cafeteria staff is cooking breakfast! Teachers are making their way into the building and getting set up for the day! We are so excited to welcome another school year! Please be patient with us this first week as we work out all of the kinks with cafeteria service and transportation! It takes some adjusting to get back into the routine and make sure every student gets to where they need to be!
We loved seeing all of our students last night at Open House! Just a few things to keep in mind for the 1st week of school.
1. Parents are welcome to walk their students to their classrooms for the 1st week only. After that you will drop them off at the back gate. Kinder and PreSchool students can be dropped off in the front office.
2. Parents need to exit the building by 8:15am. That is our official start time and teachers will be anxious to get their day started with their students.
3. If you would like to be a parent volunteer, please complete the form on the district website under the "Come Work For Us" tab.
4. If your student is on any medication that needs to be distributed at school, you must come fill out the paperwork with Mrs. Ashton in the front office.
We are so excited for the 2026-2027 school year and look forward to working with you in doing what is best for kids!!! Thank you for your continued support!

These outstanding students were top scorers on the ELA and Math sections of Arizona's Academic Standards Assessment (AASA). We are very proud of their hard work and effort as well as the hard work and effort from the Coronado teachers and staff who have guided them and taught them along the way.
