Jefferson Elementary School was closed today due to an electrical situation overnight. A custodian smelled what could best be described as wire burning. The custodian called 911 and Coldwater Fire Department responded. There was no fire, but the smell was confirmed. This district’s maintenance department was sent to the building as there was no power at the time.
Jepson Electric sent an electrician who tested lines entering the building from the transformer. Three lines were found to be inoperable. In order to restore power to the building, the three lines needed to be replaced, and the estimated time for the work would not allow for us to open the building today.
As of 10:30 this morning, power has been restored and our maintenance department and technology director were testing throughout the building to ensure no damage.
A very special thanks to the custodian who contacted 911, Coldwater Fire Department, our maintenance crew and Jepson Electric for the quick response to get our building back up and running!

Due to a building problem, Jefferson Elementary School is closed today, Wednesday April 16.
On Saturday, April 4, 2025 a few Coldwater High School students contacted Coldwater High School administrators and the Coldwater High School Resource Officer about a SnapChat posting. The SnapChat posting was an image of a weapon and a Cheetos bag with the message “Guys come to school tomorrow I have Cheetos.” The Coldwater City Police Department was contacted immediately and started to investigate.
The Coldwater City Police Department, working with CHS administrators, were able to identify the student in the posting. The investigation included working with the Branch County Sheriff’s Department and the Bronson Police Department. The investigation found that there was no credible threat to any students, staff or others at Coldwater High School.
As always, the safety of our school and our community depends on all of us. We appreciate that CHS students brought this to our attention so that it could be investigated. Whenever we see something suspicious, it should always be reported.
