Ms. Fichter’s class had a fun and engaging science experience while experimenting with fizzy dinosaur eggs! Students explored a simple chemical reaction by combining baking soda and vinegar, which caused their “eggs” to fizz and bubble. As the reaction took place, they watched their dinosaurs hatch, making for an exciting hands-on learning activity.
Our 5th grade students recently enjoyed an exciting field trip to a Pennsylvania Colonial Farmstead, where they stepped back in time to experience daily life during the colonial era. Students learned about the important chores children their age would have completed, including caring for farm animals and making candles. One of the highlights of the trip was the opportunity for each student to create their own candle, giving them a hands-on connection to history. This engaging experience not only brought the past to life but also supported Pennsylvania social studies standards by deepening students’ understanding of early American life.
Reminder: PTO meeting Thursday at 6:00
Our students and staff had a blast celebrating the 100th Day of School! From creative “100-year-old” outfits to fun, hands-on activities, the day was a joyful way to mark 100 days of learning and growth.
As a reward for filling their STAR Chart, Mrs. Crane's class decided to take advantage of the winter weather! They headed outside for an afternoon of good, old-fashioned fun! The kids enjoyed sledding, sliding and playing some "snow" soccer. It was a great time!
Dear Coatesville Area School District Families,
I hope your children enjoyed today’s snow day. However, in order to allow road crews, both district and surrounding townships, to continue the cleanup from this weekend’s storm, the Coatesville Area School District will implement a Flexible Instruction Day (FID) tomorrow, Tuesday, January 27, 2026.
Students and families are asked to observe the FID schedules outlined below to ensure learning continues as planned.
Elementary (Grades K-5): https://coatesvillesd-my.sharepoint.com/personal/davisb_casdschools_org/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=%2Fpersonal%2Fdavisb%5Fcasdschools%5Forg%2FDocuments%2FCASD%20FID%20Expectations%20and%20Schedules%5FElementary%2Epdf&parent=%2Fpersonal%2Fdavisb%5Fcasdschools%5Forg%2FDocuments&ga=1
Secondary (Grades 6-12): https://coatesvillesd-my.sharepoint.com/personal/davisb_casdschools_org/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=%2Fpersonal%2Fdavisb%5Fcasdschools%5Forg%2FDocuments%2FCASD%20FID%20Expectations%20and%20Schedule%5FSecondary%2Epdf&parent=%2Fpersonal%2Fdavisb%5Fcasdschools%5Forg%2FDocuments&ga=1
If students experience Wi-Fi connectivity issues or power outages that prevent them from logging into their classes, they will be required to complete the assigned work prior to returning to school so they are not marked with an unexcused absence for the day.
The safety of our students, families, and staff remains our top priority. Please use caution if traveling and continue to monitor district communications for any additional updates.
Please be safe, and don’t forget to submit your fun snow day pictures to goodnews@casdschools.org
Sincerely,
Anthony P. Rybarczyk, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools

Estimadas familias del Distrito Escolar del Área de Coatesville:
Espero que sus hijos hayan disfrutado el día de nieve de hoy. Sin embargo, para permitir que las cuadrillas de mantenimiento de carreteras, tanto del distrito como de los municipios cercanos, continúen con las labores de limpieza tras la tormenta de este fin de semana, el Distrito Escolar del Área de Coatesville implementará un Día de Instrucción Flexible (FID, por sus siglas en inglés) mañana, martes 27 de enero de 2026.

Mrs. Swisher’s first-grade class at King’s Highway was excited to welcome a special guest reader, Mrs. Crane, a retired Coatesville teacher. She shared the story The Legend of the Poinsettia, which explains the poinsettia’s origins in Mexico and its name in honor of Dr. Joel Poinsett highlighting its cultural importance. Inspired by the story, students showcased their creativity by painting their own beautiful poinsettias.
As a reward for filling their Star Chart, Mrs. Crane's 3rd grade class at King's Highway brought in blankets and flashlights and made forts. The kids could hang out with friends and read together in the forts. It was a great time!
