Students in Ms. Canada’s class at Coleman Elementary recently worked together to build a larger-than-life Mrs. Potato Head! 🥔
As they added each piece, students learned how their counselor is like Mrs. Potato Head and discovered how each part plays an important role.

Congratulations to everyone at Coleman Elementary for earning a place on the very first Reading Culture Trailblazers list of the 2026-27 school year! 🌟
More than 75% of Coleman students have already logged their reading in Beanstack this school year. That level of participation reflects the dedication of librarian Mrs. Knickmeyer, teachers, students, and families who are helping make reading a meaningful part of students’ daily lives.
Thank you for the work you do to keep students reading and help create pathways to success! 💜

Students also read ""Please Love Me Like I Love You"" as they prepared for some very special visits from Rosie, the golden retriever!

Students in Mrs. Mathes’ 4th grade class at Coleman Elementary put teamwork and perseverance into practice with a challenging puzzle activity! 🧩
Working in groups without knowing what the completed puzzle looked like, students had to communicate, collaborate, and work through challenges together. It was a hands-on way to learn that struggles can be part of the process, and that working together can help find a way forward.
