Coleman Elementary sent five 5th grade NEHS members to the Youth Impact Partnership Kindnesses Conference at Meridian High School.

The Week of Kindness will be November 10-14.

Administrators Recognition Day is today, and we have some great people to celebrate. We're proud of the team we have built, the care they have for their staff, students and families and the knowledge they bring to make Coleman the absolute best it can be. Just like the rest of our team, I am not sure where we would be without them and we appreciate that they make our jobs easier because we know we can count on each one of them. Besides that, they are just good people who make us laugh, support us, listen to us, hear us out, take on tough situations, juggle a mountain of obligations and just generally make a huge difference to many people every day.

Thank you to Mrs. Cindy Araway (Elementary Principal), Mrs. Sara Hegel (Business Manager), Mr. Michael Cowell (Transportation Director), Mrs. Jen Hess (Jr/Sr High Principal), Mr. Wade O'Dell (Custodial/Maintenance Director), Mrs. Amy Klopf (Elementary MTSS Coordinator), Mr. Kevin Cliff (Jr/Sr High MTSS Coordinator & Athletic Director) and Ms. Sharon Nestorak (Food Service Director) for the countless hours and thought you put into your roles with this Coleman Team.

If you have a chance, drop them a quick note, a small token of appreciation or share a personal thank you in some way with each of them this week.
