Merry Christmas!!
I wanted to take a moment and congratulate Mr. Willie and our music students on a fine Christmas concert. Everything was top notch and wonderfully done.
I invite everyone to attend the Elementary program on Dec. 22. I am sure that we are all in for a treat.
One item for you to possibly consider coming up in January is our District Board Meeting. It will be held in the Cokeville High School library on January 8th. Everyone is invited to attend and listen to the procedings of the Board.
Thank you for supporting our schools. I hope that all of you have a very Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year.

Merry Christmas Everyone,
In my opinion, this is truly the best time of the year. I hope that you all enjoy preparing for the holidays as much as I do.
We have many activities scheduled for the month of December for the students of both schools. If you have any questions about a date or time of an activity, please take a moment and look over the calendar that you should have received last week, or feel free to contact Tina or Lynne. They would be happy to get you another copy.
As you are aware, we are continuing to have problems with the phones at the elementary. We have been working with district resources, as well as two phone companies, to try and get things fixed. Until we can get things figured out, if you have a true emergency and are unable to get through to the elementary school, you can call the high school and we can transfer the call. For Lynne's sake, I ask that you not use this option unless absolutely necessary :).
Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I do appreciate your interest in our schools.
Merry Christmas!

Hello Panther Fans,
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope that you are all enjoying the beautiful Fall weather.
I recently returned from an exciting week in Yellowstone National Park where I was able to spend some time with our 6th grade students. What a wonderful experience that was. I would like to thank our students for representing our school so well. I would also like to recognize the efforts of Mrs. Warner in pulling off such a big event. Our students are fortunate to have such a talented and dedicated teacher. I would also like to express a special Thank-You to the parent volunteers that spent the week assisting our students. It is because of the efforts of all of these fine people that our students got to experience one of the most wonderful places on earth.
At this time I would also like to remind everyone that we will be hosting parent teacher conferences this Friday (11/21/08) from 8:00 am - 12:00 pm at CHS, and at the individually appointed times at CES. If these times do not work for you, please contact your child's teacher and we will arrange a different time for you. If I can be of assistance, or if you wish to meet with me, please let me know. I hope that everyone is able to come and visit with us.
Thank you again for your continued interest in our school.

Greetings from your Cokeville Schools:
I am sure that most of you would agree, it is a great time to be a Panther, or Panther Fan. Congratulations to our volleyball team; 2008 STATE CAMPIONS!! It does feel good to be #1!! Our football team is doing a great job of representing our school as well. Good luck to them as they complete their run through the playoffs. I am confident that they will perform well.
Next week, (Nov. 10th - 14th) our 6th graders will be at Yellowstone National Park. This is a great experience for them. Again, I am confident that our students will represent our school and community well. I am so proud of their efforts, in partnership with the PTO , in pulling off a very successful Halloween carnival.
I would like to congratulate Mr. Willie and his fine students on a wonderful Fall concert. We would also like to recognize the students who represented our school at all-state choir, and jr. high music clincs. Again, our student's performances represent a source of pride for all of us.
These are just a few examples that remind me of how fortunate I am to live and work here in Cokeville. Thank you for your continued support of our schools.

Welcome to the Cokeville Principal’s blog.
This week marks the mid-semester point. I am amazed at how fast the year is flying by. I am also very pleased with how the year is going. As we ran the mid-semester grade report, less than 3% of our students grades 7-12 are receiving a failing mark. None of our 7-12 students are receiving more than one failing mark. What a fine accomplishment this is for our students and the teachers who work with them.
I would like to take a moment and address a concern that has been brought to my attention. A short time back, we sent a letter to the homes of next year’s Kindergarten students. I understand that this letter has caused some concern. Please allow me to clear up the intent of this letter. It was our sole intention to provide some helpful suggestions for helping incoming Kindergarten students with the transition into school. The suggestions offered were never meant to be presented as admission criteria. We simply attempted to answer the question that is often asked: What can I do to prepare my child for the start of school? I sincerely apologize for any stress or concern that this letter may have caused. I am convinced that the parents in our community are the best anywhere.

Good day Panther Fans,
Thank you for taking the time to visit this site, and for your interest in our school. Our school year is going well. I am proud of all of the good things that our students are accomplishing both in the classroom, and in extracurricular activities. We just completed our third bi-monthly grade check on students involved in CHS extracurricular activities and I am pleased to report that we only had one failing mark. This mark was quickly addressed and remedied. Two weeks ago we did not have a single failing grade among all of our students who are involved in an extracurricular activity.
At CHS, we are doing something new this year in our attempt to fulfill our mission of “Making Everyone Better For Life.” Every student and teacher has been assigned to an advisory group. These groups meet twice a month to review student grades, schedules, or any concerns that a student might have. These advisors are available to assist and mentor the students in their group. They are also available to assist parents with questions or concerns as well. If you do not know who your child’s advisor is, or have questions about the program, please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to assist you.
Thank you again for your interest in our schools.
