Today is Custodial/Maintenance Recognition Day - a day to celebrate our crew and the tremendous hard work they do. Mr. O'Dell, Mr. Waddington, Mr. Rhynard, Mr. Compton, Mr. Housner, Mr. Sharpe and as an honorary member, Mr. Mogg, are an incredibly valuable part of our team. These guys keep everything running smoothly and every area of the district looking good and keeping it clean. This, in turn, makes everyone else's jobs easier and keeps our students and staff as healthy as possible. Please take a minute to say thank you, give them a token of appreciation or a short note letting them know that you recognize all they do for us around here.
Happy Michigan College Month!
Each October, school staff rally around the goal of providing every high school senior with the opportunity to apply to college and for financial aid. Special focus is placed on assisting students who would be the first in their families to attend college and students who may not have otherwise seriously considered applying to college. Michigan College Month can open the door for students by encouraging them to take the most significant steps toward college in their senior year.
Seniors will use the attached lists to help them decided which colleges they want to apply to at Senior Application Day on October 7th.

📷 Elementary Picture Day is tomorrow! 📅 Jr/Sr High wait until Friday.
We want to sincerely thank the entire community of Coleman Schools for your unwavering support of our students as everyone shared their Comet Pride at an even greater level over the past few weeks to help us with our push for the T-Mobile Friday Night Lights Grand Prize. We were incredibly fortunate to receive $5,000 toward our football facilities and just as importantly, had the chance to show how this community comes together. We received word last week that we did not receive the $25,000 or move forward in the competition. But, what we did do was make some lasting memories, get some great shots of our students and community and recognize all that makes Coleman great! Thank you for your effort and we hope soon to be able to still share our video with you of what Friday (or Saturday) Night Lights is all about #students #studentathletes #community #Coleman #CometPride

This week Tuesday, Sept. 23rd, is the District Recognition Day for our Communication & Technology Teams which include Jim Burkhart, the never-allowed-to-completely-retire Brian Cone and Laurie Bell, Natalie Kalitta and our students Miles Kirklin, Hadyn Naylor, James Schaefer and during breaks, Zack MacPhee. These people do SO many creative things on a daily basis to help everyone of us and reduce the stress in our day while positively promoting the District and all that occurs here. They have interesting ideas and strive to make everything else run smoothly. We so greatly appreciate every single one of them!
Looks like the elementary teachers had their game faces (and blue gear) on today! All set to cheer for the Lions tonight! 💙🏈
2nd grade school spirit? Check!
Welcome (back) to Ms. Rebekah Timlin who has been a long-term sub for us the past couple of years and is now in a new role as the site director for the Jr/Sr High Ignite program. Glad to have you back in this capacity, Ms. Timlin!
Our JH football team carried the @TMobile magenta sign with pride in last night’s parade, and you all were fantastic with shares last night! 💗 Every share with #FN5GL #Sweepstakes brings us closer to a cash prize that could mean so much for current and future Comet athletes. Thanks for your support! 💙🤍
