On September 11th, 19 years ago, America was forever changed when Terrorist attacks on our nation would end the lives of thousands of innocent people within a matter of minutes. The nation was shaken to its core, and the fibers within the fabric of our country were cinched together a little tighter as Americans drew together to gain collective strength and rebuild. On this Patriots Day in 2020, Cottonwood School would like to thank and honor the First Responders and Military Members in our School Family for their service and sacrifice. May you remain safe in your duties and may you always know how much you are appreciated.

Take a few minute to read Cottonwood's Newsletter for September it will fill you in on things that are on campus, resources that are available and things to look forward to.

Students interested in playing an instrument this year can head on over to Cottonwood School to check one out for the year from music teacher Mr. Beuche. For questions regarding instrument availability or other music questions, you can email Mr. Beuche at [email protected].
