Coleman Elementary School

Mrs. Young's class practiced addition - hot cocoa style! ☕️ who else would do more math if it involved snacking on marshmallows? 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️

1st grader Nash (U.S. president trivia extraordinaire 🇺🇸) & Kindergartener Evelyn (the fastest runner in her class 👟) kicked off last week's Board Meeting by leading the Pledge of Allegiance! Thanks for being great leaders in your class! #LEADLikeAComet

Matching jammies with your family is essential at Christmastime - even at school! 🎄At pajama day on Thursday, we caught principal Mrs. Araway matching with her daughters Miss J (Spanish Teacher) and Miss Sara (Paraprofessional), and brothers Xander and Rigel matching, too! 💙 we're absolutely loving the holiday spirit!

The 5th and 6th graders were really feeling the festivities this holiday spirit week! 🎅🎄

The Student Lighthouse Team enjoyed a Christmas party following their team meeting this week! Check out their graham cracker gingerbread houses. 🍬

There have been elves all over Mrs. Young's classroom all holiday season! 🎅 Yesterday, their classroom elf, Cookie, hitched a ride on Mrs. Klopf's back all day. 😆 there were also a bunch of elves swarming Mrs. Young and Mrs. Methner on her bulletin board - do you two need help!?

Some 6th grade pals started out the week in some festive fashion. Thanks for bringing more holiday cheer to the hallways today! ❄️

Thursday, 12/11/2025- Coleman Schools will be on a 2-hour delay today due to the condition of some of our backroads in both Midland and Isabella Counties. The Road Commissions have been working hard, but there was just a lot to do. Speaking with the Road Commissions last night and this morning, they will be out on those roads at 7 a.m. so we should be in good shape with a 2-hour delay. Be safe heading in later this morning.

Tuesday, 12/9/2025: In addition to the other cancellations, the Boys Basketball game is now cancelled as well due to worsening road conditions. All events/practices are now cancelled for this evening.

Wrestlers- Coach Kimball will be here BEFORE the end of the day to do weigh-ins for the meet tomorrow and wrestlers will be called down so they can still get on the bus or home at the end of the day.

Thanks to Thor & Clark for being our Pledge Leaders at the Board Meeting Monday night! Clark was a little too shy to have his picture taken, but we appreciate them both for being great leaders in their school! #ColemanCometPride #LEADLikeAComet

Reminder! TONIGHT is Leadership Night at the elementary school! The event starts at 6:00 pm and free dinner will be provided. Thank you to all of the local businesses who have donated time and resources for the event - we have some amazing door prizes up for grabs!

Check out the 6th grade Halloween costumes!

3rd Grade Update! ☁️ 🌧️ 🐐 In mid-September, 3rd graders built their own anemometers for their "wild, wacky, weather" unit, Sean Long donated a rain gauge and an anemometer for us to keep, and Lillian Wright's family brought in a goat for the 3rd graders to pet!

Last week, Chartwells hosted a National Apple Crunch Day celebration! 🍎 In both buildings, students got to sample different varieties of fresh fall apples. What a beautiful, edible display! 🍏 #LEADLikeAComet

Thanks to our awesome Pledge Leaders at Monday's Board Meeting, Kathy & Layna! We're so proud of you both for being great leaders in your class. #LEADLikeAComet #ColemanCometPride
