6th graders had a chance to spend time with Mrs. McCormack and work on their Proactive and Synergize skills based on the Circle of Influence. Students were able to watch a couple of their teachers model scenarios about appropriate interactions. Students then paired up and created their own situations to perform for their peers. The lesson ended with a game of telephone to demonstrate how quick a story can change if passed on by those that do not know the entire situation.

Coleman Schools will be closed on Friday, January 14th and Monday, January 17th. These will NOT be virtual learning days, but days we are closed due to illness and staffing shortages. We are sharing this information now in an effort to give families time to better prepare. The Board Meeting for Monday, January 17th will be moved to January 24th at 6p.m. These decisions are not made lightly, are done with significant thought and careful consideration of many pieces of data and various district factors. We will continue to be in person to the greatest extent possible. This time will allow for further deep cleaning of each of the classrooms and high traffic areas, time to regain staffing levels as well as create a potential break in the cycle over the 4-day period. As of now, exams are set as scheduled. However, the staff is giving input as to what is most appropriate to ensure students have time to get assignments in, have exam reviews and then take exams. Mrs. Hess will relay any additional information to students and parents as we have it. Games/athletic events for these days and over the weekend are not canceled; however practices, should a coach choose to hold them, will be voluntary. Please be healthy and safe. Should you need to be around others, do your best to social distance and mask. If students are not feeling well, they should stay home. Our goal is to get back into and stay in school in person, so thank you in advance for doing what you can to assist.

Shout-out to Educators in the Great Lakes Bay Region, who participated in Hour of Code and could sign up to be entered into a random drawing for classroom prizes. One of those teachers was Janet Bohn who won a 2nd place! Congrats Mrs. Bohn and thank you for bringing Code into your classroom for your students! Shout-out to Liz Moore who applied for the Gerstacker Teacher Innovator Grant. Ms. Moore's project, "Kindergarten Scientists," earned a $913.04 award of materials to use with her students. So excited to see the purchases and what students do with them. Also to Mrs. Shumaker who applied for the Gerstacker Teacher Grant! She learned just before break that she was awarded $1,500 to help with costumes and sets for the Drama Theater Program this year. Congratulations and thank you for working hard on these experiences for our kids!

Congratulations to Kelly Huss, paraprofessional, on her retirement last month! Kelly has a gift for helping student and staff and is just a genuinely kind, intelligent, and hard-working person striving for the best every day. Her expertise and skills are going to be greatly missed by so many in this district. We're excited for her to be able to spend even more time with her grandkids going forward, and we know she is as well. Thank you sincerely, Kelly, for the tremendous work you have done over many years. You have been a definite asset to the Comet Team!
