The district was happy to give a tour of our buildings and facilities to Teri Rink and Rebecca McIntyre from the Michigan Department of Education on January 12th!
Thank you to our students (and staff!) for being on their best behavior and representing our schools so well during their visit. Rebecca had to say this after her tour: "A few things that interested me were the real-world opportunities that are available for students to learn while in school so they can seamlessly transition into the adult world and apply skills such as communication in American Sign Language, raising livestock, working on John Deere tractors, operating a restaurant and preparing and ordering food. Classrooms were very quiet and full of student engagement in each building we went into, and the closed campus certainly has benefits for the entire community. We appreciated the opportunity!!”
Featured here is the Agriscience barn where they were welcomed by Opie, Dairy Moo, and Mrs. Lattimer; the group meeting Mrs. Schuetz at the elementary school; us showing off our Jr/Sr High building; and then, a tour of the kitchen in our culinary program building at the Depot! Thank you, ladies, for the nice visit, we loved having you here!
Spelling Calisthenics! In Mrs. Pelletier's 2nd and 3rd Grade classroom, the students enjoy practicing their spelling words by doing various exercises while spelling. We get our heart rates up while learning how to spell our words. It's a huge hit and almost all the students scored a 90% or better on the last test!
Coleman Schools will be closed tomorrow, Friday, Feb. 10, 2023.
From Mrs. Staley's class: "Our class was asked to make a homemade item to auction off at our Sports Booster Bonanza. We made a "When I Grow Up I Want To Be..." end table. Each student in our classroom drew and illustrated what they want to be when they grow up.
IT TURNED OUT AMAZING!!!"
We're excited to introduce Mrs. Lucy Kosincki. Join us!
SPARKS after school program is canceled for today, Thursday, 2.9.2023.
Mrs. Brownlee and Mrs. Pelletier's classes have been learning about Michigan all year long. Last Thursday, Michigan turned 186 years old! To celebrate, a few days late due to snow days, both classes enjoyed Koegel Hot Dogs, Better Made Chips, Vernor's and Hudsonville Ice Cream. All these products are made in our great state. We learned about each of these companies and the pride they bring our state in the form of innovation, employment and longevity. Plus, everything was tasty!! We are so very grateful to all the parents that helped supply all the food and paper goods to make the day a success. We couldn't do it without you! - Mrs. Brownlee & Mrs. Pelletier
Our students aren't the only ones that get to learn at school!

In this picture from yesterday's professional development meeting, the elementary teachers are focusing on strategies to improve reading comprehension with their students.

This week with Mrs. Lagalo, students in kindergarten through third grade learned a calm down technique called "teddy bear breaths" or "buddy breaths". They had to lay on the floor, place a bear on their stomach, and watch the bear go up and down with their deep breaths. Some of the students pretended they were rocking their bears to sleep. They all did a great job!
