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!

#GiveLocalMidland starts NOW! Donate sometime between now and 1 am to help us win the โEarly Birdโ award and an extra $300 towards our endowment fund! What's an endowment fund? Learn more and donate here: https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools
Agriscience students pose with their FFA certificates after the annual FFA banquet! FFA cultivates Comet connections by encouraging leadership opportunities via student officers, expanding student horizons with each state convention and conference, and by connecting with students from other districts to improve peer relationships. How cool is that?

Next up is Margherita Foti, one of our foreign exchange students from Italy! It's been lovely having you with us as a Comet this school year; we'll miss you so much! Enjoy your time back home, Margherita! #ColemanCometPride

Canโt donate today? Helping us SHARE our posts today is almost as important!

Let's go for it! https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools
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!

You can donate to our endowment fund anytime, but donations made during today's special event can help us earn additional matching funds and prizes. Don't miss your chance to donate if you can, or SHARE to help get the word out! https://www.givelocalmidland.org/organizations/coleman-community-schools
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. In this picture, the students are enjoying the school forest property, We love opportunities for our students to come together and be leaders!

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!

Our Culinary students had many opportunities to cultivate connections this year, as well! This image is from one of their "stressors," which are realistic recreations of what it's like to work in a restaurant. We invited staff and community members to stop by and order breakfast just like a real restaurant. . . . and the students did amazingly under the pressure!

Thanks to the support of our Board of Education, we were able to fund the purchase of enough solar eclipse glasses so that ALL of our K-12 students could safely view the eclipse! This rare opportunity cultivated connections by creating a cool memory that these students will remember forever . . . and that may also spark interest in the field of astronomy!
