👏🍽️ Shout out to our culinary program from Deputy Wakeman for the HARD work they put in at last month’s Project DARE Dinner Fundraiser!
These students and Chef Moore were put to the test, serving nearly 400 people at the event — and they responded tremendously. 💪👨🍳👩🍳
Their hard work and culinary expertise did not go unnoticed. The DARE team received many compliments on how delicious the food was!
Deputy Wakeman shared that he is proud to have the opportunity to work with these students and Chef Moore. They represented Coleman Community Schools in such a positive manner. ☄️💙
This event wouldn’t have been possible without the Coleman Culinary program and their commitment, teamwork, and dedication.

Coming up next week is Leadership Day! We're inviting our families to come join us for an afternoon of fun. The students can't wait to show you all what they've learned! #LEADLikeAComet

🌎🧤 During one of those nice days last month, our 5th graders spent part a day helping keep our school beautiful!
Students worked together to pick up trash around the track, sidewalks, elementary entrance, and playground areas. We love seeing our students take pride in their school and community through acts of service like this. ☄️💙
Great job, 5th grade! 👏♻️

🎓🚌 Our Juniors and Seniors had an awesome college exploration day back in February!
Students started the trip at Delta College’s Midland Campus before heading to the Main Campus to learn more about programs, opportunities, and campus life. The day wrapped up at Saginaw Valley State University, where students enjoyed lunch in the dining hall and took a guided campus tour.
Experiences like these help students start thinking about future pathways, career goals, and life after high school. ☄️💙

We are full of Recognition Days lately and this week is Teacher Appreciation Week which includes all of our CEA members and our amazing substitutes. It is also School Nurse/ Health Care Staff Appreciation Day tomorrow here in the district!
It's a great week to be celebrating these outstanding educators and health care staff and I was reminded of that all day today. There are situations every day that need the assistance of our health care team and they are able to help ensure our kiddos and staff get the best support and care. Thank you all (Kayla D., Kayla P., Stacey and Amy B.)!
To our teaching staff including our social workers, speech pathologist and student support specialist, this afternoon was just another reminder of all the work, skill and support you bring to your jobs every single day. In the Jr/Sr High, all the grade levels and staff were able to witness the culmination of at least 13 years of work by our graduating seniors, their families and the team here in Coleman to get them to that point. Every student had an activity- or many- that they were involved in and everyone of them has a plan going forward to ensure they are career or college ready. In the elementary, all of the students spent part of their day watching the performances of other students who have the confidence to get on stage in front of 300+ other people. Those things only happen with the little and big things that happen every single day and every single hour of their time with us. Thank you for making this such a strong team, loving and caring about our students and instilling in them the character it takes to be successful. Thank you for making this a team that we all want to work with each day!
Share a token of appreciation, a thank you note or a pat on the back with these groups this week. They are certainly deserving!

To go along with their time with Junior Achievement, Third Grade went to the Coleman Area Library to participate in some financial literacy activities and got a free picture book about saving and spending. Here are some pictures from Mr. Liechty's class.




Softball finished the week in dominating fashion. They lost to a tough Chesaning squad, but won handily against Merrill 11-1 and Flint Carmen-Ainsworth 19-3. Against C-A, the freshman trio of Kyleigh Baker, Ari Blubaugh and Olivia Hegel were dominant. Baker had 3 hits and 5 RBIs, Ari was the winning pitcher and Hegel had her first high school home run. Against the Vandals, Kendall Allen went 4-4 with 3 RBIs while Raegan McCoy was the winning pitcher with 6 Ks.


High School Band and Choir students participated in the MSAC Traveling Talent Show this week. Students auditioned at a live show held in Montabella. The top eight acts were chosen for the traveling show and all three of Coleman's acts were selected! The kids spent three days traveling around the mid-state region putting on an amazing show!

We're recognizing more amazing staff members this week! ☄️
Our Food Service staff is always working hard. Thousands of free meals are served every school day and still more during the summer to make sure our students start the day out right and have the energy to get through the day and learn. They also make special meals for staff to order each week. This group works SO well as a team and are always ready to pitch in where needed. Thank you to the Food Service Team for the early morning efforts, the ability to come in smiling and the delicious food everyday!
Happy School Principal's Recognition Day! We are incredibly fortunate that both Mrs. Araway and Mrs. Hess are genuinely here for their students, families and staff. They spend an inordinate amount of hours getting to know all of those people by name, planning, adjusting on the fly, following policy, making decisions with the best intentions, and continuing to learn. Long before each day starts, they are already prepping. They are following through late into the night and over the weekends. Both want only the best for each person in their buildings and to bring the best education possible to the kiddos. Mrs. Araway and Mrs. Hess, TREMENDOUS thanks for all that you do every early morning, day, night, weekday and weekend. We appreciate every single thing you do.
Our transportation staff are the first people that many parents talk with in the summer before school starts, which starts the year off in a positive way. They are the first people the parents and students see each morning and the last ones to work with their children every night. They aren't the postal service, but they might as well be... "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds." They continuously keep our kids safe and able to get an education, work with them through tough situations and celebrate with them when something goes well. Thank you to our Transportation Team for the tremendous work they do daily and year round.
