About Lutie Lewis Coates Elementary School

Vision

To empower our children to become successful adults who make a difference.

Mission

To nurture and expect all students to be strong individuals (who demonstrate high academic achievement, grit, and personal responsibility), collaborative teammates (who demonstrate effective communication skills and empathy), and bold thinkers (who engage in thoughtful risk-taking).

Beliefs

• All students can achieve.
• The best teachers have high expectations, strong skills, and the ability to apply their skills so that goals for students are realized.
• Students must be exposed to challenging activities and situations in order to grow
• Skills and virtues that transcend the curriculum, like collaboration, critical thinking, grit, and empathy, must be taught explicitly and reinforced consistently.  

About PTA:

Coates is proud to have a wonderful Parent Teacher Association (PTA) that works with the principal to make Coates a great school. PTA volunteers can help in many different ways. Some help out with planning community events for the school, some give a few hours to help the office or library staff with tasks, and some help raise money to buy things the school needs
