Dear CISD Families, Staff, and Community,
Welcome to the 2026–2027 school year!
I hope each of you had an opportunity to enjoy a restful summer and are returning with excitement and anticipation for another outstanding year at Coolidge ISD. It is truly an honor to serve as your superintendent, and I am grateful for the opportunity to partner with our students, staff, families, and community as we continue moving our district forward.
As we begin a new school year, I cannot help but reflect on how much our district has accomplished. The progress we have made over the past several years is a direct result of the dedication of our exceptional teachers and staff, the unwavering support of our families and community, and the hard work of our students. Together, we have built tremendous momentum, and I believe our best days are still ahead.
This year marks another exciting chapter for Coolidge ISD. Many of our major construction projects are making substantial progress, and we look forward to opening and utilizing facilities that will enhance learning opportunities for our students for generations to come. These investments represent our community's commitment to educational excellence and our belief that our students deserve the very best.
While our facilities continue to improve, our greatest focus remains on student achievement. During the 2026–2027 school year, we will continue strengthening instruction, expanding opportunities for every student, and maintaining the high expectations that define our district. We are committed to creating classrooms where students are challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their fullest potential.
Our vision remains clear: to be a First-Class school district in every aspect of our work. First-Class is more than a slogan, it is the standard by which we measure ourselves. It means excellence in academics, outstanding extracurricular opportunities, exceptional customer service, safe and welcoming schools, and a relentless commitment to continuous improvement.
To our outstanding faculty and staff, thank you for the passion, professionalism, and care you bring to our students every day. Your work changes lives, and I am incredibly proud to serve alongside you.
To our parents and families, thank you for entrusting us with your children. Your partnership is essential to their success, and we value the confidence you place in our schools.
And to our students, welcome back! We are excited to see all that you will accomplish this year. Dream big, work hard, represent your school with pride, and never stop striving to be your very best.
I look forward to an incredible 2026–2027 school year. Let's make it our best one yet!
Respectfully,
Robert Lowry
