Alice Coachman Elementary School
Cassandra Grant: I am from Chicago and the cousin of Alice Coachman. I flew in for a visit last week and visiting the school was on the top of my list. I was very impressed with the importantance for the security and safety of every student first, and secondly I was very impressed with the staff and their professionalism. I was also touched by the dedication of Diane Coachman-Jones, Alice Coachman's daughter , the physical education teacher. Not only did she display true dedication to her career but also a sincere interest in her students. I pray that the school will continue to produce productive citizens, and maybe one of them will follow in Ms. Alice Coachman famous footsteps and become the next Olympic icon.
