United Bay Community Credit Union very recently joined our community and immediately reached out to the district to ask what they could do to support updating the old scoreboards, which served us well for many years. Last Friday, we were excited to unveil our brand new gym scoreboards, generously and entirely paid for by United Bay! With their donation, nothing has come out of the pockets of our community to finance this project. These boards will be used for volleyball, wrestling, and basketball throughout the year and assist us in continuing to update the look of our Jr/Sr High gymnasium. A sincere thank you to United Bay Community Credit Union and its representatives for their support. Joining us from the UBCCU team that evening was Diane Abbonizio, Doug Kelly, Kerri Singley, Jen Shelby, Mackenzie Shelby, Leslie Webb, and Jayna Hafelein. A special thank you to Emily Burgess who was not able to be here that night, for her tremendous efforts and support to make this happen. Thank you all!

Recently, Drama Club students went to a Theatre and Dance Day at Central Michigan University where they could participate in workshops on acting, voice, props and costumes. They got to meet members of the cast of the Fall production of Cabaret, and get to know other theater majors at the University. We love to see our Comets building skills and being proactive!

Some of our awesome student leaders attended Midland County Youth Impact Partnership's Leadership Day on October 24 in Bullock Creek. Our students learned about sense of purpose, positive peer relationships, and self-esteem. After the break out sessions, they were given time to brainstorm ideas for their school's week of kindness, which is November 13-17. Our students did a great job representing Coleman Community Schools!

Recently, members of the Michigan FFA visited the Coleman Regional Agriscience Center. Following is a letter shared with Mr. Fischer and Mrs. Zwemmer about their visit. We are incredibly proud of the students, our teachers and the program. Great work! #GOCOMETS Good Morning Mr. Fischer, Logan and I had a great time visiting your chapter and getting to know you and your students! We really appreciate you opening your classroom to us. I especially enjoyed learning more about how your program works and seeing the barn. Your classes were so fun to work with, we loved being able to use those full 2 hours! I think I can speak for both of us when I say this was one of our favorite visits. Also, if you have those group pictures or any other pictures from the day we would love to have you share those! We look forward to hopefully seeing you and your students again soon. Thank you again, Lilly Nyland Michigan FFA State Secretary https://www.colemanschools.net/page/agriscience
