THE ARTS ARE ALIVE IN CASD!
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!

The Coatesville Area School District is proud to recognize and celebrate National Arts in Education Week, September 13–19! This week, we recognize the creativity of our students and the dedication of our arts educators while celebrating the important role that visual arts, music, theatre, dance, and media arts play in education.
Through the arts, students develop creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and confidence—skills that help them succeed in the classroom and beyond. Every Student, Every Community.

REMEMBERING AND SAYING THANK YOU AT REECEVILLE
Students at Reeceville Elementary marked Patriot Day with a meaningful ceremony alongside officers from the West Brandywine Police Department, members of the East Brandywine Fire Department, and Officer Irizarry of the Coatesville Area School District.
Together, students recited the Pledge of Allegiance and listened to the National Anthem before the flag was lowered in remembrance of all those affected by the events of September 11, 2001.
The ceremony concluded with a special gesture from our students. By grade level, they presented handmade thank-you cards to the first responders, showing their appreciation for the service they provide to our community each day.
Thank you to our first responders for joining us and to our Reeceville students for demonstrating that remembrance also means showing gratitude to those who serve.

Today, across our country, solemn and reverent ceremonies are being held to honor and remember those who were lost and those families, friends, and colleagues who were impacted 25 years ago on September 11, 2001.
This morning, our AFJROTC held a flag-raising ceremony and led an announcement commemorating that day and reflecting on its lasting significance.
Throughout the day, remembrance will continue across our schools and classrooms as students learn about the events of September 11 and honor the lives lost, the courage shown, and the many acts of service and sacrifice that followed.
Today, the Coatesville Area School District joins our community and our nation in remembering.
