Coloma Newsletter

Dear Families,

As we get closer to finishing another successful school year, we’re turning the spotlight on a truly remarkable group of students—the Class of 2025 Top 10. These young leaders represent the very best of Coloma: academic excellence, character, perseverance and a commitment to making the most of every opportunity.

While these students are now preparing to complete their final year with us, they have made a lasting impact on our school community through their dedication in the classroom, leadership in extracurriculars and positive presence throughout our schools. They have set a shining example for their peers and created a legacy that will inspire future classes for years to come.

We want to take this time to recognize and celebrate their extraordinary achievements. Whether it’s through academic accomplishments, community involvement or personal growth, these students continue to embody the values that define Coloma: integrity, resilience and a relentless pursuit of excellence.

Throughout this newsletter, you’ll learn more about each of these exceptional individuals, their impact on Coloma, their passions and their plans for the future. It’s a moment to reflect on their incredible accomplishments and to cheer them on as they prepare for the exciting road ahead. Please join us in celebrating the Top 10, as well as the entire Class of 2025, for their hard work in reaching this milestone. We are proud of who they are and all they have accomplished. We can’t wait to see what they do next.

Thank you, as always, for your continued partnership and support. Together, we celebrate the future of Coloma.

Sincerely,
Dave Ehlers
