I am so excited to welcome our Coyotes back for another amazing school year! I hope you and your family have enjoyed a wonderful summer filled with rest, fun, and special memories.

I would also like to extend a very special welcome to our new Coyotes and their families. We are thrilled that you are joining the Kohlberg family, and we look forward to getting to know you.

Last school year, our students achieved incredible academic success, and I couldn't be prouder of everything they accomplished. Those achievements are a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our students, families, and staff. This year, we are excited to build on that success and continue helping every Coyote grow academically, socially, and emotionally.

Our teachers have been hard at work preparing their classrooms, planning engaging lessons, and creating welcoming learning environments where every child can thrive. Students will have so much to look forward to this year, including engaging learning experiences, fun school events, new friendships, and opportunities to discover their strengths.

Thank you for trusting us with your children. We value our partnership with our families and look forward to working together to make this school year our best one yet.

Welcome back, Coyotes! Let's make this an unforgettable year of learning, growth, and success.

Donor's Choose for our Broadcast Club

Dear Kohlberg Family,

I want to make sure my students have exactly what they need to succeed, so I've created a project through DonorsChoose, the nonprofit classroom funding site for public school teachers.

Here's my project: Help Our Student News Team with a New Broadcasting Laptop!

Your support would mean so much to my students. In return, you'll receive our heartfelt gratitude.

Thank you for considering a gift to my class!
Cheryl

P.S. If you know anyone who may want to help my students, please pass this along!
