Mrs. Conner's class thoroughly enjoyed listening to Mrs. Dominque Prater read to her class about a student with Autism.
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.

Coldwater Community Schools has been asked to help spread the word about the Branch County Childcare Survey. This survey is focused on gathering data to identify key priorities within the childcare sector across Branch County.
As previously mentioned, our goal is to collect a strong response before the survey closes at the end of April. The more data we gather, the better we can compare trends from previous surveys conducted by Pulse and other counties. Your participation will help highlight challenges and opportunities within our community.
We appreciate your time and input in shaping the future of childcare in Branch County.

Third graders from Mrs. Hodges class volunteered to help teach the second graders in Mrs. McDonald's class this week! They have been working on various subtraction strategies in second grade. Third grade students had the opportunity to share one of their favorite strategies, and help to mentor their "buddy." We love to see the collaboration, and to foster cross-grade level relationships!
Mrs. McDonald's class has been loving Junior Achievement! They have a community member come in once a week for 6 weeks to teach a small lesson! They have been learning all about communities! It has been a fantastic experience! Thank you to all the JA volunteers!
