Coonley's Beta Club is up and running again!!!! Our first fundraiser this year is to support those that have been hit hard in Hurricane's Harvey and Irma. The money collected will be going to the Red Cross and/or gift cards to schools in need. Please understand that our donations provide critical supplies, such as food, water, school supplies and other needs for hundreds of communities devastated by these storms. 
​
Teachers will be collecting donations Monday, Sept. 25th through Tuesday, Oct. 31st. 

This week Room 317 students will be receiving a field trip slip and packet for our October Dunes trip. Part of that packet is a double sided field trip slip/water policy form. Both sides must be completed and turned in to Ms. Beecher. In addition to the paper slip there is also an online form that must be filled out. Each student must have a parent fill out this form by October 2nd for the use of the Dunes Learning Center.  

Adult chaperones also need to fill out a form, this link will be sent to you directly if you have volunteered to chaperone. 

My website was down for a couple of days. It is working again as of now! Here is the Dunes trip chaperone information and the Open House Powerpoint. ​

Praise for Book 1 in the Horizon series:
“The fast-paced action and mystery … should keep readers glued to this book and eager for the next one, due in fall 2017 from Jennifer A. Nielsen.”
-Publishers Weekly
 
“The setting is effectively developed, with a threat level that's high enough for effective suspense but not too gruesome, and the characters provide many points of entry for a broad spectrum of readers. A solid popcorn adventure.”
-Kirkus Reviews
