Ms. Infante showed off her super cool jacket yesterday, covered in colorful drawings and signatures from last years' 1st grade class! (Lovingly dubbed 'Firsties 3.0' by Ms. Infante) If you haven't met Ms. Infante yet, she just started her 4th year here with us and is doing an excellent job!

Today is Tech./Communications Recognition Day for the District! Between Mrs. Laurie Bell, Mrs. Natalie Kalitta, Mr. Jim Burkhart, Mr. Brian Cone, Ms. Emily VanSickle, Mr. Zack MacPhee and Mr. James Schaefer, we have the best people around. These people do their "other" jobs throughout the day and then add to that, they keep our technology up-to-date and humming along and share all the amazing events and progress happening here at the school in new and fun ways. Thank you to each one of them!
If you have a moment today, please stop them and say thanks, give them a small token of appreciation or share a note with them to recognize their work.

The 6th graders had a fun time working together and creating with Legos (Synergy!) The classes were split into teams of 4. Each team had to work together and decide what they were building and how they were building it. They did a great job! Look at that Comet Creed masterpiece! It even has a mini Mrs. Araway, Mrs. McCormack, and Mrs. Klopf overseeing everything - but the best part is the mini Deputy Hodges in the watchtower!! Ms. Timlin and Mrs. Lynch's classes did great with the 6th habit of Leader in Me! #LEADLikeAComet #ColemanCometPride
