These kindergarteners spent a day last fall cultivating connections to the agriscience program and all of the fun that goes along with it! Our high school ag students helped plan a "fall fun" day for the elementary school students featuring hayrides, crafts, and pumpkins. In this picture, the students are enjoying the school forest property, We love opportunities for our students to come together and be leaders!

These kindergarteners are focused and intent on learning! They're cultivating connections by following classroom expectations, being engaged in their assignments, and by taking big steps to become great readers one day!

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!

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.

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!

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!

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!
