15 Coleman high school students performed two concerts with 102 students from around the MSAC league in Carson City last week on Tuesday. This was the largest band we have had at this event!
From Mrs. Young last week: It's one of my favorite days! Red nose day! Red Nose Day is a fundraising campaign to end the cycle of child poverty and ensure a healthy future for all children. By purchasing and sporting a red nose, not only are we bringing awareness to the cause but we are helping to end child poverty! Thank you to my classroom Grammy for providing the noses for all of my kiddos ♡
