CMS's annual Pennies for Patients drive to collect money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is in place. As in years past we are asking that any money brought in by students should be handed to their homeroom teacher, also LLS has proved a link for donations to be made through their website. Also, this year there are separate links for each grade so online donations can be tracked separately to determine this year's winners. The grade that collects the most money will earn a reward.



Welcome to Robert Coelho Middle School's Fundraising Page


Light The Night At The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light The Night we gather as a community to celebrate, honor, and remember those touched by blood cancers. Friends, families, schools, corporate teams, and sponsors join together to bring light to people that have been affected by this disease.



Our other event is our March Madness Food Drive for Coelho's Food Pantry. We are asking for the month of March for snack items to be donated to the CMS FOOD PANTRY. For example, granola bars, small bags of Cheez-Its or chips, and other items that would normally be added to a school lunch. The Brackets will be broken down as follows:


The first way will be a contest between homerooms by grade:

  • Grade 5 homeroom Winner
  • Grade 6 homeroom Winner
  • Grade 7 homeroom Winner
  • Grade 8 homeroom Winner


Please consider donating.......
