Cocopah Honors Students of Character
On Friday, November 21st, more than 50 Cocopah students were honored in an afternoon assembly for demonstrating outstanding character during the first half of this school year. The event was organized by Cocopah's counselors of high character, Mrs. Chemodurow and Mrs. Solod. Students were selected by their teachers and received a certificate of recognition and other fantastic prizes. We were pleased to see a strong parent turnout to honor what we value at Cocopah and in our community.
Cocopah's Principal Profile for 2009-2010
In the spring of 2009, with the cooperation with our Cocopah School Community, Scottsdale Unified School District will interview and select a new principal for the 2009-2010 school year. We are asking for the input of parents and staff members to complete a candidate profile. This profile will provide guidance to a selection committee made up of parents, staff and district leadership. Please CLICK HERE to complete the brief survey.
This search begins only after exhaustive efforts to recruit Mr. Rasmussen to stay with us for another year. In the end, the lure of retirement was more persuasive.

Special Performance for Cocopah 7th Grade Students
