Coltrane-Webb Update for the Week of November 9th - November 13th

Hello Coltrane-Webb STEM Elementary School Families,

I hope everyone has had a great weekend! We were BLOWN AWAY by the incredible support and generosity of our Coltrane-Webb families and our community to our Fall Fundraiser.  You all helped raise $15,680 that will go towards supporting our students and staff.  Our students had a great time at foam party last Friday and sliming our teachers and admin team! In lieu of the weekly video, please enjoy some of the great pictures capturing these moments!  Thank you all so much! We are truly blessed to be part of this amazing community!

Please take a few moments to review the important updates below:

No School on Wednesday, November 11th

There will be no school for students and staff on Wednesday, November 11th for the Veteran's Day holiday.  We will be back to a regular schedule on Thursday, November 12th. 

Lost and Found

Our lost and found has accumulated a number of items (see the image below and our weekly video message).  If your child has lost something, please have them check the lost in found closet near the cafeteria.  Any unclaimed items will be donated if not claimed within the next 2 weeks. 


Cougar Care Closet

At Coltrane-Webb, we maintain a closet called the "Cougar Care Closet" stocked with emergency changes of clothes for students. This is a wonderful resource that allows us to support our students when accidents or unexpected spills happen throughout the school day.

As you clean out your children’s closets, please consider donating any gently used tops and adjustable-waist pants. Sweatpants with drawstrings are especially helpful!

Thank you for helping us keep this valuable resource stocked and available for students who may need it!

Spirit Nights This Week

We have TWO Spirit Nights this week:

Please come out to the Chick-Fil-A at Concord Parkway (1475 Concord Parkway North, across from Carolina Mall) from 5:00pm - 8:00pm Tuesday, November 10th.  You can dine in, drive-thru or mobile order to participate.  If you are doing drive-thru or dining in, be sure to tell their employee that you are there to support Coltrane-Webb STEM Elementary School.  A portion of the night's proceeds will be donated to our PTCO. Also, orders from Uber Eats or Door Dash do NOT count for our school.  We hope to see you there!

Our second Spirit Night will take place on Wednesday, November 11th at Mi Pueblo Mexican Grill in Concord, near Target. Dine in or take out anytime from 5:00pm to 10:00pm. Please be sure to tell the employee you are there to support Coltrane-Webb so that our school gets credit for your purchase! Also, note that for Spirit Nights, orders from Uber Eats, Door Dash, or on the website do NOT count for our school! Please make sure you DINE IN at the restaurant, call your order into the restaurant and pick up, or place a take out order inside of the restaurant. Thank you!

Positivity Project (P2)

This week for P2, students will learn about the Other People Mindset of Knowing That My Words and Actions Affect Others, which means having an awareness that everything that we say and do can affect others — and our relationships with them. Check out the parent newsletter to learn more.
