Coal Mountain Families,
Fall has been so much fun on The Mountain! From in-school field trips, to the NOFO Homecoming Parade and so much in between, our Miners are learning, connecting, and thriving every day!
Check out the dates below and mark your calendars for even more upcoming fun with your Miner! We hope to see you at all of our upcoming events.
In partnership,

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!Â
Let’s work together to help every student show up, grow, and thrive—because every day truly counts!Â
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.
