Drama Club cultivates more connections than I have time to list! This program brings together students of all ages, builds friendships, improves creativity skills, teaches students about classic stories, encourages leadership, public speaking, teamwork . . . the list goes on! Here the students are pictured during their performance of "Be Our Guest" from "Beauty of the Beast." (P.S: they did an amazing job!)

Next up is Margherita Foti, one of our foreign exchange students from Italy! It's been lovely having you with us as a Comet this school year; we'll miss you so much! Enjoy your time back home, Margherita! #ColemanCometPride

Here, two of our middle school students pose with their Peace Posters from the annual competition judged by the Lions Club! What better way to cultivate connections with the community and to get in touch with their personal integrity? We love to see their hard work and love the message even more!

Everybody - set your alarms for 3:00! If we are able to earn the FIRST donation after 3:00 pm today, before any other participating organization, we'll win the "$300 after 3" award and an additional $300 for our endowment fund!

Thanks to the support of our Board of Education, we were able to fund the purchase of enough solar eclipse glasses so that ALL of our K-12 students could safely view the eclipse! This rare opportunity cultivated connections by creating a cool memory that these students will remember forever . . . and that may also spark interest in the field of astronomy!

Our district is committed to helping our students "grow for the future," and you can help them, too! #GiveLocalMidland is live until 11:59 pm tonight -- you can donate to our endowment fund during today's special event to help us earn additional matching funds and prizes with every donation. This only happens once a year, so please consider making a donation today if you can! Check out our fundraising page here (and don’t forget to SHARE!): https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools
Here at Coleman, we even have alumni that continue to cultivate connections within and outside of our district! Comet alum Shane Gross, along with his teammates at SVSU, engineered an operational automatic smart aquaponics system that they then donated to our Agriscience program! The SVSU team gave an educational presentation about the system to the students; who will reap the benefits from the high-tech system. How cool!

#GiveLocalMidland starts NOW! Donate sometime between now and 1 am to help us win the “Early Bird” award and an extra $300 towards our endowment fund! What's an endowment fund? Learn more and donate here: https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools
Agriscience students pose with their FFA certificates after the annual FFA banquet! FFA cultivates Comet connections by encouraging leadership opportunities via student officers, expanding student horizons with each state convention and conference, and by connecting with students from other districts to improve peer relationships. How cool is that?

Can’t donate today? Helping us SHARE our posts today is almost as important!

If we are able to get more unique donors between 6:00 pm (now!) and 7:00 pm than any other participating organization today, we'll win the "Happy Hour" award and an additional $300 for our endowment fund! Let's go for it! https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools
This student is making connections between the microscopic world and ours by viewing cells under a microscope! She's either looking at pond water samples or at a swab of her own cells, both of which can be very interesting research!
