Help us welcome these newest additions to the Comet Family: Mr. Kyle DeVrieze, Mr. Rob Glazier, Mrs. Christine Rease, and Mr. Joshua Sampson.
☄️ Kyle DeVrieze & Rob Glazier have been volunteering with the Boys' Basketball teams for the past couple of years. They will be Co-Assistant Coaches with Boys' Basketball moving forward. We would like to thank them for their commitment to the athletes and the sport as well as the knowledge they bring to it. Welcome to the Comet family!
☄️ Chris Rease began with us as a substitute paraprofessional at the Jr/Sr High but had also interviewed with us and is now a formal employee. She has been a great addition for her kindness, care of students and skill in building relationships and helping students stay on track. Weclome Mrs. Rease!
☄️ Welcome to Mr. Joshua Sampson who will be a new team member with us starting March 10th. Mr. Sampson will be one of our Jr/Sr High English Teachers and he comes to us from Bay City Academy. Mr. Sampson has six years of teaching experience along with being an adjunct professor at Delta teaching writing. He also has a background as a journalist for some years prior to teaching. His passion and excitement about teaching students English and writing is very evident, even including having run Book Studies and Creative Writing Clubs for students. He comes highly recommended by those who did not want to see him leave as their teammate or staff member and is incredibly genuine and personable. We're excited to bring him on board. Welcome Mr. Sampson!
Welcome to all of them!

Our own Comet, Dakota Lattimer, dug deep in his first match of the state tournament. With 20 seconds remaining in the match, down 11-7, he pinned his opponent. I think his classmates were with him. He's moving on.

Congratulations to the Transportation Department who received recognition from the State! This recognition was presented at the Board Meeting as the Certificate of Excellence for 100% in bus safety inspections for the 2023-2024 school year. This is a VERY difficult feat to manage. Michael Cowell, Doug Mogg, and Mandy Lattimer were able to attend and represent the entire department. Thank you to all who work and support in that area.
