We want to introduce our new 8th-grade boys basketball coach, Lorenz Nelson, and welcome him to the Coleman community. From Coach Nelson: I am originally from Chicago Illinois, born and raised. I have always been around and involved in sports and I know how important a sport can be for kids. I played football, basketball, and ran track in high school, so I know what it means to be dedicated. For anyone interested in participating, tryouts will start on Monday at the Family Center at 3:15. A physical is required and can be turned in to the office, or an appointment can be made with the Family Health Center to get that taken care of. If you fill out the attached Google Form, we can work to get more information to you. https://forms.gle/bX61ZosHmUiS4ktc6

Coleman's very own, Kapre Lynch, signed to continue her powerlifting career at Davenport University yesterday. She has done great things in her athletic career and will continue to do so at the next level.
Here are some photos from the Night with Santa PTO event; looks like everyone had a bunch of fun! 🎅
Congratulations to Coach Nick Katzinger who is coming back to work with our 7th grade boys basketball team as their coach this year! Coach Katz has over 20 years of experience coaching basketball, both boys and girls, and we are happy to have him work on the fundamentals and building numbers for one of our JH teams. #LEADLikeAComet
Due to the local roads and the upcoming break, we are canceling practices for today, Friday, December 20th. But the boys' basketball conference game in Merrill is still on with the bus leaving at 4:00. Be safe everyone and enjoy the break.
Varsity girls basketball hosted Merrill on Friday night with Chippewa Hills visiting to face the JV team. Both teams battled hard but came out on the losing end against two solid teams. In the varsity game, Emily VanSickle led the scoring with 9 points. Both teams are off until after the holidays when the varsity girls visit Ashley HS.
The elementary school enjoyed their annual Christmas Sing today and yesterday morning! As you can see, both the students AND staff were all decked out in their finest holiday gear (let us know which outfit/accessory you see is your favorite!). The staff also sang their personalized rendition of The 12 Days of Christmas, and we snuck in a special moment to recognize Deputy Hodges for his many years of service to the district, as he is retiring very soon. We included a picture of 6th grader Heidi, who continually looked over her shoulder to scowl at him (because - her words - she's going to miss him too much!) Happy Holidays, everyone! 🎄🎅🎁
Travis Murray signed to play baseball at Cleary University yesterday. We're proud that another Comet will play at the next level. This is a testament to his work and his family's support and dedication to get him there.
6th graders wrote notes to the residents of The Laurels of Mt. Pleasant and then designed a holiday card to put their note in. Students were able to complete more than 90 cards!
1st graders fabricated some festive fashion designs! These are just a few of their very creative ideas. 🎅
Boys basketball hosted Blanchard Montabella last night and came out with a 56-47 win. Jared DeVrieze led the way with 20 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists. Colin Stockero kept up his hot shooting with 13 points and Aden Aultman pulled down 6 more rebounds on the night. The boys were in charge the entire night and fended off a tough Mustang team down the stretch. The JV team came up short, but gave Montabella a furious challenge.
