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.
Ms. Infante's first graders are prepping for reading month activities starting with a class draft. Students got their chance to choose a team to represent their reading growth and goals for the month of March soon to be seen outside of Room 24!
Mrs. Young just about has the Sensory Room set up the way she wants it! The Sensory Room is a special space designed to help students with sensory processing needs. Students can go there to help self-regulate, reduce stress, and improve their ability to learn and interact with others.

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.
It's Public Schools Week, a reminder that public education is not just about buildings and lesson plans - it's about people! We're so grateful to our team of dedicated teachers and staff, who inspire students daily, and to our fantastic families and supporters, who champion the education of our children.
Join us in recognizing Public Schools Week. Share and tell your story about what makes public schools the heart of our communities. The future is in our classrooms. #PublicSchoolProud #ColemanCometPride
Last Thursday and Friday, the Girls Varsity Bowling Team competed in the Regional Tournament in Mt. Pleasant to qualify for States. Unfortunately, no one qualified, but all team members bowled over their average for the 2 days of competition. Charisma Gingerich led the way with a high game of 168 and Imani Davis with a PR of 144, which was 56 pins above her average. Kapre Lynch and Amelia Schwartz both had high scores of 144 and Ayva Thomas bowled a high game of 114. Thank you Lady Comets for a great season.
Last week the Coleman boys bowling team competed in a two-day competition against area High Schools and did not qualify for State. However, they had a great day with every single bowler bowling above their average over 8 games between day one and day two. Jacob Butters finished in the highest place on our team with 11th place. He also bowled 28 pins over his season average during regionals. Jaxon Lewis bowled 16 pins over his average, Landon Hauk-Powell bowled 18 pins over, Donnie Husted 21 pins over and Joe Van Sickle bowled 30 pins over his average during the two days at regionals. Also, Landon Hauk-Powell bowled a PR of 222! Thank you Coleman Comet boys for a great season!

Boys basketball hosted St. Charles last night for their last regular season game and Senior Night. It was a great opportunity to acknowledge our seniors, but also a great game. The Comets came out strong with a 16-6 lead after the first quarter en route to a 57-37 victory. Logan Glazier led the way with 20 points, 10 rebounds 5 assists, and 4 blocks. Jared DeVrieze added 12 points and 12 rebounds with Colin Stockero adding 8 points. Logan Dudley and Robert Harsh both added 7 points. The Comets kick off the district tournament on Monday at Saginaw Michigan Lutheran Seminary against Midland Calvary Baptist at 7:00.
The Lady Comets traveled to Farwell last night and came out victorious after and overtime session 48-41. They were down 10 with 3 minutes remaining Emily VanSickle hit a free throw, while Kendall Allen and Eliza Lewis took care of erasing the lead with a 9-0 run to bring them back. In overtime, Lewis and Allen each went 2 for 2 from the free throw line with Eliza adding a fade-away floater that found the bottom of the net. The Comets then kept Farwell reeling with 2 blocks by Autumn Sapp and 1 by VanSickle in the critical OT. Coleman was led by Allen's 16 points and Klaira Sysak's 13 points and 8 rebounds. The JV team hung with the Eagle through 3 quarters, but fell behind in the 4th.
Comet Basketball is winding down to the district tournaments, but we still have some action on tap. The JH boys are in Merrill this afternoon. The girls travel to Farwell to take on the Eagles tonight, Wednesday 2/19/25 and the boys host St. Charles for senior night on Thursday 2/20/25. The girls travel to St. Charles on Friday. Both teams are in action Monday with the girls hosting Lake City, with a JV start of 5:30, and the boys traveling to Saginaw Michigan Lutheran Seminary to take on Midland Calvary Baptist at 7:00 in the district quarterfinals.
1st graders Quinn and Sophia did an excellent job reciting the Pledge of Allegiance at the Board Meeting tonight! Thanks for being great leaders in your class and great representatives of Coleman Elementary! #LEADLikeAComet
