Quite a few unsolicited shout-outs in the past couple of weeks from other area community members.
During one of the girls' district games, another Supt. made a point to come over to Mr. Mammel and myself (Jen McCormack) and share with us how much he appreciated our Student Fan Section. He complimented them on their excitement about the game, the respect they were showing, their behavior and all the fun they were having.
This message came from another district's supt. today: "Thank you for hosting the boys district basketball games this year. It was very well organized. So, great job to you and your staff."
From a Breckenridge spectator/parent: I just wanted to share that my family attended your school district games last night as a spectator for Breckenridge and had made plans to watch the Coleman vs. Sacred heart game after.
All was fine, no issues but wanted to share that your band program was awesome/great to hear. I haven’t heard a great playing band program in quite awhile. Enjoyed all the music (so did the rest of the crowd); they played all evening. The best part was the playing of the National Anthem by the students. A recorded sound track of music just isn’t the same as a live band/choir students. Thanks for valuing such a program and be sure that your school board and band students know how much it touched us and the crowd, as I could see.
Great job and keep up the effort- it is a great value to your community!
Thank you to our students, staff and community members for putting our District in a positive light!

The staff vs students volleyball game was chock-full of fierce competition, with the staff team "Hammertime" taking the win! We were able to earn $179 for the current 8th grade class as they enter into high school next year. So glad we were able to participate in our favorite spring break event again for the first time in two years!


On Thursday March 24, 14 students from Coleman joined over 50 other
students from Carson City, Merrill, Montabella, Breckenridge, and St Charles for the MSAC League Honors Band.
