Shout-out to Nick Katzinger for his years of coaching so many girls basketball teams at various levels. We appreciate your always wanting to raise the competitive level of our athletes and thank you for the time you've given to the sport. Glad you will still be around during our spring sports!

Ms. Paola, one of our 6th grade ELL students, worked with Ms. J over the last few weeks to create these multicultural showcases next to the elementary main office! One of them is titled "Positivity Around the World" and the other is called "Languages of the Comets." Each showcase has buttons attached that will read aloud different phrases in foreign languages, with the translations included as well. Gracias Paola for the unique project! The kids have been loving pressing the buttons as they walk through the halls. #growingforthefuture #ColemanCometPride #academicsartsathleticsagriculture

At the MHSAA division four singles tournament back in February at Sheridan Lanes, Coleman had one boys bowler win his way past the elimination round - Jacob Butters! Jacob won his first match 160 to 118 against Carson City-Crystal and moved up to the final 8 bowlers, winning that match also 150-148 against St Charles. Jacob finished in 4th place and won a medal, which is outstanding in a starting field of 21 bowlers! Awesome job, Jacob!
