These two 8th grade students posed for a pic so everyone could see how nicely they dressed for Picture Day last week. Hi to Comets Noah Moran and Eli Baker!
Today, several Comet 10th graders are attending the MiCareerQuest career event, hosted by SVSU! There will be tons of local employers and hands-on activities that students can participate in to help them hone in on potential future career options that interest them. Parents can livestream the event from 9am-3pm today to see all the great things their students will be experiencing at https://micareerquestmm.com/

Remember last week's post of the 6th graders harvesting thei produce they grew for Culinary class? Hot out of the oven, Culinary students made pizzas with homemade pizza sauce that was made with the tomatoes that came from that garden! They also practiced their knife skills and made homemade fries with the potatoes (not pictured). We love to see our students collaborating! #LEADLikeAComet #CultivatingCometConnections #growingforthefuture

Today is Tech./Communications Recognition Day for the District! Between Mrs. Laurie Bell, Mrs. Natalie Kalitta, Mr. Jim Burkhart, Mr. Brian Cone, Ms. Emily VanSickle, Mr. Zack MacPhee and Mr. James Schaefer, we have the best people around.

Comet Cheerleaders spent some time making school spirit posters to pump up the students for the first varsity football game of the season tonight! Pictured are just some of the posters hung up around the Jr/Sr High. The team is traveling to Portland tonight to play against the St. Pats. Good luck tonight everyone!!
The Jr/Sr High students recently received some new recess equipment! The equipment was purchased after sending out a survey to get feedback last year from parents, students and staff on their recommendations for district safety and wellness needs.
You asked . . . We responded! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

In only the second week of school, it sounds like the students in Mr. Falor's Finance Class are already learning tons! They're working on setting SMART goals, short and long-term education and financial goals, and using tools like the Ramsey Investment Calculator to help them see the value of investments. Did you know your retirement savings could end up being TWICE as much if you start investing at age 18 versus age 26?! Check out the Ramsey Investment Calculator here to see an example just one of the things students are learning at Coleman Schools. https://www.ramseysolutions.com/retirement/investment-calculator
Mrs. Hess wanted to shout-out these seniors she noticed making lunchtime fun by choosing to play Spoons when they could have chosen to be on their phones. We love to see our Comets having fun! #ColemanCometPride
