Homecoming Spirit Week continues at the high school campus, and our students and staff are bringing the spirit!
Yesterday’s theme was Country Club vs. Country, and Red Raiders had the choice of dressing for a day on the golf course or tennis court or a day down on the farm!
From polos, visors, and country club style to boots, flannel, and plenty of country flair, our students and staff had some fun showing which side they were on.
The Homecoming excitement is building, and there’s still plenty more Spirit Week fun to come!
Keep bringing that Red Raider spirit, Coatesville!










Homecoming Spirit Week continued yesterday at the high school campus with Class Color Day, and our Red Raiders filled the halls with plenty of color and school spirit!
Seniors showed up in yellow, juniors rocked purple, sophomores represented in green, and freshmen brought the orange!
And our staff? They weren’t about to pick sides! Instead, they showed support for ALL of our students by combining the colors in some colorful tie-dyed fashion!
Homecoming is getting closer, and the spirit keeps getting bigger!
Keep it going, Red Raiders!










Homecoming Week is here, and our students and staff are getting into the spirit with a full week of fun at the High School Campus!
Monday kicked things off with Adam Sandler Day, and there was no shortage of creativity as students and staff dressed as their favorite Adam Sandler characters from his many movies.
From some familiar movie characters to plenty of classic Sandler-inspired looks, our Red Raiders had a little fun getting Homecoming Week started!
And this is only the beginning! Stay tuned throughout the week as we share more of the fun and school spirit leading up to Homecoming!









A little rain couldn’t stop the C-ville Picassos — the Campus Art Club — from sharing their creativity at the Coatesville October First Friday event!
Our student artists had a great time displaying their work, connecting with members of the community, and even selling some of their artwork! What an exciting opportunity for our students to showcase their talents and experience what it’s like to share their creations with others.
A special thank you to Kure MacDonald from Art Mark Alliance for helping make the evening possible by providing the students with tables, chairs, and a tent to keep them covered despite the rainy weather!
Congratulations to our C-ville Picassos for representing Coatesville and sharing their artistic talents with the community!

Some of our Coatesville students spent Saturday exploring the possibilities of STEM at Super Science Saturday at West Chester University!
Girls in grades 6–12 had the opportunity to take part in hands-on STEM activities, explore areas that interested them, and connect with women working and studying in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and math.
Throughout the day, students worked alongside STEM faculty and undergraduate mentors, participated in experiments and activities, and wrapped up the experience with a Q&A featuring women in STEM from the university and industry.

October is National Principals Month, and the Coatesville Area School District is proud to recognize the dedicated principals who lead our schools each and every day!

Their leadership, commitment, and care help set the tone in our buildings and make a difference in the lives of our students each day.

To all of our CASD custodians, thank you for your hard work, dedication, and pride in our schools.

From shooting and editing video in a visual arts class to crafting mosaic tiles, from bouncing a ball to discover rhythm to playing an instrument and to raising voices together in a choir, creativity can be found throughout the Coatesville Area School District!
As we celebrated Arts in Education this week, we wanted to highlight the many ways our students experience the arts every day in our schools.
Whether they are behind a camera, creating with their hands, making music, or performing together, the arts give our students opportunities to explore, express themselves, develop new skills, and discover their talents.
Take a look at some of our students in action and help us celebrate the arts in CASD!
