Recently, our Jr/Sr High students suggested a school-wide rock-paper-scissors competition in order to raise staff and student morale . . . and we might have to make it an annual thing! Students and staff cultivated connections all day, building good sportsmanship and prioritizing a positive district culture. In this picture, a student takes the "crown" from a staff member after defeating him!

Youโve seen these posts all day, but have you taken a chance to look at our fundraising page, yet?

Here, two of our middle school students pose with their Peace Posters from the annual competition judged by the Lions Club! What better way to cultivate connections with the community and to get in touch with their personal integrity? We love to see their hard work and love the message even more!

Drama Club cultivates more connections than I have time to list! This program brings together students of all ages, builds friendships, improves creativity skills, teaches students about classic stories, encourages leadership, public speaking, teamwork . . . the list goes on! Here the students are pictured during their performance of "Be Our Guest" from "Beauty of the Beast." (P.S: they did an amazing job!)

Here at Coleman, we even have alumni that continue to cultivate connections within and outside of our district! Comet alum Shane Gross, along with his teammates at SVSU, engineered an operational automatic smart aquaponics system that they then donated to our Agriscience program! The SVSU team gave an educational presentation about the system to the students; who will reap the benefits from the high-tech system. How cool!

This student is making connections between the microscopic world and ours by viewing cells under a microscope! She's either looking at pond water samples or at a swab of her own cells, both of which can be very interesting research!

These kindergarteners spent a day last fall cultivating connections to the agriscience program and all of the fun that goes along with it! Our high school ag students helped plan a "fall fun" day for the elementary school students featuring hayrides, crafts, and pumpkins.
