Late January/Early February - Our Coronado Mustangs competed in the 3rd round of Virtual Challenge Meets. While we don't get to travel for this competition, it allows us to compete with teams we generally wouldn't see until state, and we get to compete with many more schools than we normally would at a face-to-face event. Over 15,000 scores from all over the state were entered. Needless to say, finishing in the top ten is quite an accomplishment.We are proud of our kids. Check out our top ten finishes.

On November 7, 2020, our Coronado Mustang UIL academics teams competed in their first virtual meet of the year and had some great successes. Our virtual meet allows us to compete with hundreds of teams all over the state. The way we compete this year looks a little different than in the past, as it does for many of our extracurricular activities, so we are proud of our kids for continuing to remain competitive despite difficult circumstances. Below are some noteworthy results.
