WHAT A HOMECOMING WEEKEND IN COATESVILLE Part 1
What a night! What a crowd! What a way to celebrate Homecoming!
Friday night brought a beautiful fall evening to Coatesville Memorial Stadium, and the excitement was everywhere as our Red Raider community came together for a Homecoming celebration filled with tradition, school spirit, and plenty of Coatesville pride!
From alumni returning home and cheerleaders from across the district joining in the festivities to the sounds of our Red Raider Marching Band, there was something special about being under the Friday night lights!
The evening also featured one of Homecoming's most anticipated traditions — the crowning of our 2026 Homecoming Queen!
And our Red Raider football team made sure the celebration continued on the field, delivering an impressive 42–0 victory over Avon Grove!
It was a fantastic way to cap off a week filled with school spirit, traditions, and celebrations that brought our students, staff, families, alumni, and community together. Because no matter when you graduated or where life has taken you, there's nothing quite like coming HOME to Coatesville!
Once a Red Raider, always a Red Raider!

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

A SPECIAL THANK YOU FROM DOE RUN!
In recognition of National PTO Appreciation Day, Doe Run Elementary wanted to make sure its PTO knows just how much their support means to their school community!

Throughout the transition, the PTO has helped bring families together, build connections, and create a welcoming environment in their new school.

THE ARTS ARE ALIVE IN CASD!

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.
