🍂🎉 12th Annual Great Rakesgiving at Mockingbird Elementary! 🎉🍂
Today, our amazing Mockingbird Elementary students kicked off their 12th Annual Great Rakesgiving! At 8am, they headed into the surrounding neighborhoods to help clean up yards and spread some fall cheer. 🍁💪
A big thank you to Coppell's Ace Hardware for donating the lawn bags, which were then transported to the Coppell Community Garden for composting. 🌱
It’s a great day of giving back to our community—way to go, MKB students! 🙌

Celebrating White Cane Day Oct. 15 — My name is Daniel Jimenez. I am a sophomore at Coppell High School, and I was born with albinism, a visual impairment. This Sunday, Oct. 15, we celebrate White Cane Day, a day to commemorate the independence of people with visual impairments. The white cane was a device made for blind people for mobility purposes, to help blind people with movement and environmental awareness. Over time, as more people started using the white cane, White Cane Day was established by Lyndon B. Johnson. So, this Sunday, I am taking the day to celebrate White Cane Day. Living with a visual impairment has been difficult, and I’ve had my trials and struggles over the years, but being here in Coppell ISD has helped me learn and experience how to thrive and achieve my goals even with a visual impairment. If you’re wondering how you can help create a safer space for visually impaired individuals, here is a good tip. If you see a person with a cane, especially on the sidewalk, giving them a little more space can make it easier for them to check their surroundings. #CISDStudentMade by Daniel Jimenez #CISDMissionPossible
Learners taking the lead — Today, at Lakeside (5th Grade), Richard J.
