Recently, our Jr/Sr High students suggested a school-wide rock-paper-scissors competition in order to raise staff and student morale . . . and we might have to make it an annual thing! Students and staff cultivated connections all day, building good sportsmanship and prioritizing a positive district culture. In this picture, a student takes the "crown" from a staff member after defeating him!

Drama Club cultivates more connections than I have time to list!

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

Our Culinary students had many opportunities to cultivate connections this year, as well! This image is from one of their "stressors," which are realistic recreations of what it's like to work in a restaurant. We invited staff and community members to stop by and order breakfast just like a real restaurant. . . . and the students did amazingly under the pressure!

The Veteran's Day ceremony was an excellent opportunity for students to feel connected with our community, and vice versa! Student enjoying learning and singing a representative song for each branch of the military, as well as reciting stories, offering gifts to our visiting Veterans, and thanking them all for their service. It was a meaningful experience for all.
