Cordelia Hills Elementary

We are wrapping up another week at Cordelia Hills! Thank you for being a part of our school community and for supporting some of the most amazing Coyote students ever!  I know it has been a tough week for some of our 4th and 5th grade students as we had to make a fairly sudden shift to a new class. We look forward to the addition of our newest class and for the growth of all of our students.  This update includes information and calendar updates for events thru October!  1. Back to School Night : Back to School Night is coming up this Tuesday, August 29th. A few things to know for the evening: Gates will open around 5:30, all parents meet in the MPR at 6:00. Class visits start at 6:30 and then a second session at 7:00. The evening ends at 7:30. PTA will be on site selling memberships and spirit wear!! We encourage parents only but we won't turn away families if you have to bring your children. Also, remember, this is an opportunity to meet the teacher a...

Good afternoon, I am contacting parents to let you know that we are opening an additional classroom at Cordelia Hills starting this Friday, August 25th. This 4th-5th grade combination class will be located in Room B-10. This new class will help to reduce the enormous class sizes at upper grades and give each child a better experience.  While moving after the start of the school year is not the optimal situation, it is the best choice for our students and school and one that we are excited to make. If you have a 4th grade student or 5th grade student who has been selected to start in the new class, we will notify you by letter tomorrow and attempt to make phone contact with you. Please understand that we know this move can create some anxiety and angst with students and parents but we are confident that we will have a smooth, supportive transition to the new classroom. Thank you again for your time and support.

Welcome Back! It was a fantastic first week! Staff was so excited to have our amazing students back on campus and we are so happy to welcome all of the new Coyotes. A preview of this weeks update includes: a reminder on new morning procedures, eclipse information, reminders about nutrition and forms, and upcoming dates and events. Thanks again for being an amazing school community and as always feel free to email or stop by to talk! 1. Morning Routine : Many of you have emailed about changes to the morning routine. While the changes do present some difficulty for parents, we believe they are in the best interest of our students. I want to recap the changes below so everyone is clear on what they are: A. The front roll up gate and back gate open between 8:10-8:15. This gives students just enough time to hang up back packs and report to morning PE or classrooms (TK/K only). This reduces the amount of unsupervised/less supervised time students are on campus. This...

Hi everyone, Welcome back to Cordelia Hills. I will be sending out a ton of information this week but I wanted to quickly update you about a few important things for tomorrow. Just a few reminders: 1. All students start at 8:20 tomorrow. TK/K will be at school until 11:40 and grades 1-5 will be at school until 1:35. This is the regular schedule for Wednesdays. 2. A reminder that the school gate opens for breakfast at 7:55 (red door) and the other entrances (large roll up gate and back gate) open at 8:15. To accommodate the larger crowds, we will open at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow, the first day of school.  3. ALL THIRD GRADE PARENTS : 3rd grade teachers will have computer device/bring your own device meetings tomorrow at 1:45 and 5:00 to talk about device use at school. All parents are highly encouraged to go! If you can't make it, email debbies@fsusd.org and she can assist you with the needed information! 4. We will have some photo booth props located near the top of the amphi...
