Hello from your Cokeville Schools,
I hope that everyone is enjoying a pleasant (though dry) winter season. I am happy that many of you have included attending our High School and Jr. High School events on your list of winter activities. It is exciting to have fans in our gym to cheer on our teams. I thank all of you for supporting the kids. It is my intention to do what I can to ensure that viewing Cokeville activities remains a safe and enjoyable experience for all. In order to do this, I am requesting everyone’s assistance in monitoring children’s play in the school’s hallways and commons during events. Activities that have the potential to result in injury to a child, or damage to the building cannot be allowed. In an attempt to limit the threat of injury and damage to the building, school personnel have been instructed to abide the following procedure when witnessing behaviors in the hallway that are inappropriate.
1.The children participating in potentially dangerous or damaging activities will be asked to stop the activity.
2.If a child continues to engage in inappropriate activities, they will be asked to go and sit with their parents.
3.In the event that the activity continues after the second contact, the school employee will escort the child to their parent. Children who do not have a parent at the activity will be sent home from the activity.
Please know that it is not my intention to make anyone feel unwelcome at our school’s activities. These measures are simply being put in place to help ensure that our activities continue to be a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation and continued support.

Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope that November has found you healthy and well.
November is a busy month for us in the Cokeville schools. It is a time of transition from our Fall to Winter activities. I am very proud of the way our Volleyball and Football teams represented our school and community. I fully expect that our Winter experience will be just as positive.
I would like to invite everyone to attend our Fall musical this Friday and Saturday. The kids have been working hard and I am sure that the show will be awesome.
I would also like to invite everyone to attend our parent-teacher conferences this Friday. These conferences are a great time to meet with your child's teacher and clarify their academic progress to date. I also will be available throughout the day if you would like to meet with me. Feel free to call and set up a time, or just drop in. I will be happy to meet with you.
Thank you for your interest in our schools.

Greetings all,
I hope that everyone is feeling fine during this "age of the flu." As I am sure that you are aware, the Swine Flu has found its way to our community. Please be sure to take every precaution to protect yourself and your children from this and other illness. The number one prevention is the frequent washing of your hands. Also, we would ask for your assistance in limiting the exposure to illness by keeping your child home from school if they are running a fever or are exhibiting other flu symptoms. Working together I am sure that we can limit the effect that the flu season will have on our community.

Happy Homecoming!!
It is always exciting to be a Panther Fan, but somehow, Homecoming Week makes it that much better. I would like to invite everyone to come out and be a part of our celebrations. I am confidant that our students will represent our community well and make us all proud.
For your information, we will be following the traditional homecoming schedule that includes a bonfire pep rally Thursday night, a program and parade Friday morning (9:00 and 11:00), followed by a 1:00 football game and volleyball matches at 4,5, & 6:00. There will be plenty of good times for all.
For your information, the elementary school students will be released at 12:45 on Friday. If your child is a bus student and you wish to have them remain in town for the ball game please send them with a note. Otherwise, we will be sending them home on the bus. The High School will be released at 12:50.
Have a GREAT HOMECOMING!

Greetings Panther fans,
Last night I had the opportunity of meeting with a few of you to discuss our PAWS assessment. We discussed both why we administer the PAWS and how we use the assessment results. I really appreciated hearing your comments and suggestions.
As you may be aware, President Obama will be presenting a 20-Minute address to the Nation’s school children on September 8th at 10:00 am. It is our intention to make this address available to our students. If you as a parent prefer that your child not participate in this event, please let the school know by sending a note with your child. We will be happy to provide an alternative activity for your child during that time.
Just as a reminder, due to the Labor Day Holiday, September 11 (Friday) is a scheduled school day.
I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Labor Day weekend.
Mr. Harris

Well, the first week of the 2009-10 school year has come and gone. I hope that the beginning of school was a smooth and pleasant experience for you and your children.
Last week you should have received a copy of your child’s PAWS results in the mail along with an interpretive guide to help you understand the results. As I stated in that communication, overall, I am pleased with our student’s performance on this assessment. Hopefully you are pleased with your individual child’s results.
In an attempt to help you as a parent better understand how your child performed on the PAWS assessment, the purpose of the PAWS assessment, and how the assessment results are used by the school, I will be hosting a short informational parent meeting at 5:30 pm on the evening of September 3rd in the CHS auditorium. Anyone who would like assistance in understanding their child’s results or has questions about our state / district assessment system is invited to come. I will do my best to answer your questions / concerns.
Following this informational meeting, there will be a nomination meeting for a Cokeville Advisory Board. The purpose of this board will be to provide input for our District School Board. I believe that this Advisory Board has the potential to be a very positive thing for our schools and community. I would encourage everyone with a stake in our schools to attend, become aware, and involved in this process.
Thank you for the opportunity of working with your children.
Best Regards,
