Great things are happening at the Coleman Elementary Summer Academy!

This week third grade scholars learned about electricity and created paper circuits. Second grade scholars learned about phases of matter and made rice krispie treats. Scholars were engaged and excited to learn, and this was only week 1!

Check out the attached video to see our scholars in action!

Thank you to the amazing family members and staff that contributed videos to the Coleman ATLAS Encouragement video! This video was shown to students before testing both days this week to encourage them to take their time, take a deep breath, and believe in themself as they take on the ATLAS assessments. While this was made for the Coleman scholars, the message stands true to all of our scholars.
