Together We Shine
Coal Mountain Families,
Happy 100th day of the 2025-2026 school year. All of our students are 100 days smarter and have shown their growth in so many ways this year! We can't wait to watch them continue to SHINE!
Please stay warm and cozy this weekend with the wintery weather on the horizon! We'll keep you updated along with the district communication, so keep an eye on emails and social media for up to date information.
In Partnership,
Kelly Fuchs
Principal
Coal Mountain Elementary
💎Attendance Matters💎
Did you know that regular school attendance is one of the biggest predictors of student success? When students show up each day, they stay on track with learning, build strong relationships, and develop habits that last a lifetime. Even just a few missed days can add up, making it harder to catch up academically and socially. Our Miners do best when they are at school all day, every day!
Let’s work together to help every student show up, grow, and thrive—because every day truly counts!
As a reminder, the latest you can check your child out from the front office is 1:45pm. If you come later than that you will be asked to meet your child through their regular afternoon transportation method.
Additional information regarding Forsyth County Schools’ Attendance Policy, including excused absence information, can be found here.
We’re excited to share that CMES is considering hosting a Summer Camp, led by Mrs. Gourley and Ms. Moore—our Camp Coal After School Program co-directors—and we’d love your input!
Please take a moment to complete our Parent Interest Survey by March 13th.
Please reach out to Kelly Moore at khmoore@forsyth.k12.ga.us or Courtney Gourley at cgourley@forsyth.k12.ga.us with any questions.
Fill out this short, confidential survey below aimed at better supporting families in Forsyth County!
