We celebrated Absolutely Incredible Kid Day at the Jr/Sr High last week! Staff nominated students to encourage and uplift them through positive messages of support. Whether you got a shoutout last week or not, we see you all and appreciate the kindness, perseverance, and growth you all bring to the Comet family every day! #LEADLikeAComet #AbsolutelyIncredibleKidDay

Absolutely Incredible Kid Day
Earlier this month, students from the Beaverton STEAM class visited the Coleman Agriscience program to learn how they can develop a partnership wherein they will create plastic items for use in the greenhouse. They brought samples of containers that they are in the process of developing and producing and conducted research as to what containers would suit our program needs the best.

They assessed the various containers the greenhouse program uses to determine how they can produce them but also touched on questions regarding sustainability, durability and recycling. Program instructor Scott Wicke is excited for the potential regarding the relationship, saying "Not only would we like to see how the students can create containers, but we'd like to discover other ways they can design and create tools and other products Coleman can use."

As a part of their visit, the Beaverton students were able to propagate some souvenir plant cuttings and place them in the containers they brought with them while learning about the greenhouse operations. Coleman Agriscience students will be conducting a reciprocal visit to Beaverton in the coming weeks to discover how their process is conducted.

Seniors Victoria Kennedy and Emma Ranck have been working on a FUN science project totally inspired, created, and managed by them. Their betta sorority (a tank of only female betta fish), has been thriving in Mr. Kalitta's room under their careful care. They love these type of fish and wanted to share that love with other students at the Jr/Sr High. The other students have really enjoyed checking in to see their growth, as well. Nice work ladies! 🐟 #LEADLikeAComet

If any of you know Princess, please let her know that we are really trying to get her kids back in school and hoping the warmer temps later this morning will get us there. I heard yesterday that she just can't take another day of "beauty school". Hang in there, Princess! We're thinking of you!~ Mrs. McCormack

Good Morning- Wed., Jan. 7, 2026- Coleman is on a 2-hour delay this morning. We are really trying to get students in, but we have more ice than yesterday morning in some areas. The hope is a delay will give more time for the salt to work and it will bring light to make things safer. Thank you for working with us on this as I know it adjusts all of your days.

Tues., Jan. 6, 2026- JH practices are cancelled. HS practices are voluntary. Bowling will still take place in Sanford and the team will meet at the bowling alley. The Varsity Boys Basketball game is still on tonight. Please take your time and leave a bit early as there is some ice, but with the raising temps, the ice seems to be melting on many roads. Go Comets!

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.
