Due to COVID-19, Coahoma Elementary will be handling Pre-K3, Pre-K4 and Kindergarten registration for the 2020-2021 school year a little differently. For safety precautions, we will only take registration by phone at this time. The phone registration does not guarantee your child will be attending CES for the 2020-2021 school year, but it will give us a starting point until restrictions have been lifted.
Registration will begin by phone starting Wednesday and continue through Friday, April 17, from 9 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Please note, we will be closed this Friday, April 10. To register, please call 432-394-5000, ext 2 and speak to Jessica.
Pre-registration is only open for children who live in the district. Transfer requests will not be processed until after June 1.
