NJHS’s 1st Annual Animal Rescue Drive
Our NJHS chapter will be hosting our 1st annual Animal Rescue Drive here at Coal Ridge Middle School! We will be supporting 2 different organizations;
Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary in Erie (farm animal rescue) and
Soul Dog Rescue in Fort Lupton (cat and dog rescue).
Lost and Found Update
Our Lost and Found has grown quite large lately, and this week we discovered some hidden spoiled milk that caused an unpleasant smell. To help keep the area clean and manageable, we are updating our Lost and Found procedures.
Water bottles and lunch boxes will now be placed on a designated table in the cafeteria. Any items left on that table at the end of the day each Friday will be discarded. Clothing and all other belongings will remain in the current Lost and Found nook.
Please encourage your child to check the Lost and Found regularly if they are missing any items. Thank you for helping us keep our campus clean and organized!

8th Grade History
This year marks her 14th year in education—and every one of those years has been dedicated to doing exactly what she loves: teaching 8th grade history. Ms. Lyddan has never wanted to be anything else! Her favorite part of the job is, without question, the students.
Outside of school, she stays busy driving her own kids nonstop to a full schedule of sports practices and games, cheering them on every step of the way. We’re grateful to have her passion, humor, and dedication on our team
