The High School National Honor Society is pictured here setting up flags around the Coleman Veteran's Memorial on Veteran's Day. Volunteering and honoring your country is a great example of how to #LEADLikeAComet!

So, what do we use the CCS Endowment Fund for? This past school year we funded three projects that were proposed by staff members. Project #2 helped the Drama Club put on their full-length production of Mary Poppins! This funding was used to purchase supplies for set-building, costumes, and hair & make-up needs. If you want to help us fund more projects next year, consider making a contribution to the Endowment Fund today! https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools #GiveLocalMidland #LEADLikeAComet

Pictured here is a massive cereal donation project that the Elementary School took on during Reading Month in March! You may remember a similar project they did back in 2022. This year, the students wanted to try it again and beat their record . . . which they did! Students donated 1,115 boxes of cereal to a local food pantry for people in need. Amazing job, Comets! #LEADLikeAComet

On Tuesday, April 29th, Members of the Jazz Band and Choir performed at the MSAC Talent Review. Schools across the MSAC each sent three acts to perform. Those acts were judged and the top 8 were chosen to be a part of the Traveling Talent Show, performing in each of the schools over the next week. We're excited to say that our Jazz Band and Choir performance of SIX were both chosen to be a part of the Traveling show!
