Welcome Back!
We are so excited to welcome all the students back to school on Tuesday, August 16th.
We can't wait to see all of you.
Ours doors open at 7:55 am daily. On Tuesday we dismiss at 1:35 pm. Our normal dismissal time is 3:00 pm.
This will be my second year as the principal of the Coal City Elementary School. It has been a fun and rewarding transition. Before working at the Elementary School. I was the Assistant Principal at the Coal City Middle School for three years. Before I began working here in the district, I was a teacher and administrator at Saratoga School in Morris for 16 years. I loved my job in Morris, but when the opportunity to transfer to Coal City came available, I jumped at the chance. This is a fantastic district. I also grew up in Coal City so I have gone through this district and I still live here with my husband Brad, a business owner and fire fighter in town. We have one son, Braeden, who is a sophomore at the University of Illinois.
We are looking forward to an amazing 2022-2023 school year!!

Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures
DOORS OPEN AT 7:55
- Remember W. Second Street is a one way street going east.
Drop off and pickup will be on the south side of the building on W. Second Street. For the safety of all of the children that are being dropped off and picked up, please pull into the no parking zone (parallel to the road) and let your child exit the vehicle. We ask that you then exit the spot and pull forward onto the street again. Parents will not be allowed to exit their vehicle this year, as it will be a continuous drop and go lane.
Pick-Up
- Pickup will also be along W. Second Street. It will be a pick up and go as well. There will be no parking, so the first several cars will be pulling into the no parking zone and waiting until dismissal. We ask that the cars fill in and pull all the way up to the parking lot. From there, cars will fill in as cars leave. Teachers will be out with their classrooms making sure that students are getting into their parents vehicle in a safe manner.
