​This afternoon Coker Elementary entered into a "soft" lockdown due to a student medical issue. Everything is fine and the parents/guardians of the student have been notified.

I'm excited to announce that we will be hosting our first book fair of this school year! I have found an exciting new company to work with, called Bedford Falls. They offer "Kid Credit" which allows you to put money into an online account for students, allowing them to purchase books WITHOUT you having to send money. However, you can send money in, if you prefer. The book fair will run October 2-6th! We will have some special days involving the fair, so keep an eye out for more information! Can't wait to see you at the Book Fair, Mrs. Hensley The link below will take you to the Kid Credit page https://kidcredit.bedfordfallsusa.com/kidCredit.php...

We are proud, and excited, to announce that Coker Elementary now has "A Little Free Library" in the front of the school. It is accessible 24/7, and is a place where you can take a book and/or leave a book (or several books). Thanks to the help of some of our students, we were able to fully stock the box yesterday. There are "Little Free Libraries" at all elementary schools and at various other locations in the county, as well as all over the country.

Good morning, parents! We're off to a great start to school, and we hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of the year with us. We just wanted to share a quick reminder that with the beginning of the school year comes a time to refresh our memories on our emergency drills. The state of Georgia requires us to hold a certain number of fire drills and an intruder drill within the first month of school. We'll be holding these drills throughout the month of September as we do each year. If you have any questions about our safety drills, please let us know. Thanks! ¡Buenas tardes, padres de familia! Estamos en un gran comienzo en la escuela, y esperamos que todo el mundo esté disfrutando el comienzo del año con nosotros. Sólo queríamos compartir un recordatorio rápido, que con el comienzo del año escolar viene un tiempo para refrescar la memoria sobre nuestros simulacros de emergencia. El estado de Georgia, nos obliga a realizar un cierto número de simulacros de incendio y un simulacro de intrusión en el primer mes de escuela. Haremos estos simulacros durante el mes de septiembre como cada año. Si usted tiene alguna pregunta acerca de nuestros simulacros de seguridad, por favor háganoslo saber. Gracias.

Please join us to learn about Title I.

We would like to thank the Shaw Transportation Department for donating school supplies for our students!

Thursday Teacher Spotlight

We appreciate your patience as we have experienced a higher than usual number of cars in both morning drop-off and afternoon pickup. In the past, we have had an average of 130 cars in the line. This year, we have an average of 274 cars each day. In an attempt to decrease wait times during your morning commute, we have added an additional drop-off location on the other side of the gym between 7:15 and 7:30. Please keep in mind, this area is a bus-only area prior to 7:15. You are welcome to drop off at this location if your child is able to exit the car unassisted. Please pull up to the sidewalk adjacent to where regular drop-off is and your child can exit the car and enter the school using the same sidewalk as our regular drop-off location.

Our school nurse will be at open house!

Due to safety concerns and the lack of visibility pulling out onto Leonard Bridge Road in the afternoons, we have made some changes to our pickup procedures for the 2023-2024 school year. The safety of our staff, students, and families is our first priority! Morning Drop Off- - K-6th will drop off in the back of the school (same location) Afternoon Pickup- - You will now enter and exit the student pickup area on Sitton Road - Fast Pass holders will be picked up at the front of the school With any new procedure, it takes time for everything to work seamlessly. We ask for your patience and understanding as we make this transition. We know it will be slower than usual the first few days of school. Attached you will find maps with the new procedures. We will be happy to answer any questions at open house. We can't wait to welcome our Cubs back!
