Coconino High School Welcome
Hello FUSD Middle School Families,
It is with great pleasure that we welcome the Class of 2028 to Coconino High School. This is a very exciting time for our school and for you as incoming freshmen students and families. The first step to prepare your student for their 9th-grade year is to select a course of study that will prepare them to pursue their goals for college, career, and life after high school graduation.
Our school offers comprehensive and varied educational opportunities to meet the needs of all our students. We pride ourselves on providing career and college readiness curriculum and quality educational opportunities designed to prepare students for the future. We encourage you to preview the course catalogue included in this newsletter as students begin to plan for their four years in high school and beyond.
Again, welcome and we look forward to seeing you soon.
