Congratulations to junior Imani Lopez-Elliott for winning high school student of the week! Daughter of Addie and Gabriel, Imani has a full year in front of her. With the aim to study early education, she looks forward to her goal of attending a four year college and taking a semester abroad in Europe. She is also interested in tutoring younger children. As of right now however, her favorite class is yearbook, and she is excited for Christmas break. Imani is in both volleyball and dance, specifically pom and kick, and she has a lyrical solo that she hopes to take to state competition. Despite her favorite color being purple, Imani favors the deep red coat of a fox. She also loves Alfredo and hot chocolate. Great job Imani! We look forward to seeing your future achievements.

This week's Elementary student of the week is preschooler Maxwell McGrane. Max is the son of Jessica Gusa and Dan McGrane. He has two older brothers, Dillon and Emmet, and an older sister, Leah. Max likes to play baseball and is excited to start playing tee-ball. Math is his favorite subject, and he's excited for the Halloween parade and all the festivities. He likes scary movie characters, and if money weren't a big deal, he'd definitely choose to be Chucky, but as a second option, he wants to be a construction worker. Lastly, Max's favorite color is blue, and his favorite animal is a puppy. Congratulations, Max, and keep up the good work. We can't wait to watch you grow and flourish at Alma Schools!

Last night Addison Johnson (daughter of Beau and Jenny Johnson and 2025 Graduate of Alma High School) WON her Dairy Production Placement Proficiency at the NATIONAL Level. To qualify for nationals you have to win at the state level first, which she did back in June. She had to submit a lengthy application and years of record keeping as long with going through an interview process. An amazing accomplishment and LOTS of hard work and dedication by Addison, her family, Ms. J and many people who have helped her along the way. What a accomplishment it is to be recognized at the National level! CONGRATULATIONS to Addison, her family and Ms. J!

Last week the junior high class took a trip to the Alma Public Library to pick out some books to read and to enjoy the new space. There, they were able to browse among the available titles in both the young adult and adult sections to find books. They also were given the chance to ask one of the library staff to search for a specific book or series that was of interest to them and request to hold it. All such amazing things at the library! A special shout-out and thank you to the library director: Laura, and all of the library staff who collaborated with the school to make trips like these possible!

Congratulations on the elementary student of the week for this week: Elouise Green! The only daughter of Kiera and William "Bill" Green, Elouise has begun third grade this year and has been greatly enjoying switching classrooms throughout the school day for a change of scenery. With two dogs, one goldfish, and two turtles---one baby and one adult---Elouise's family has plenty of action. She enjoys challenging her mind by solving complex 100-piece puzzles in her free time, though TV and YouTube time are also appreciated. Despite her favorite class being mathematics, Elouise looks forward to achieving her dream job of either a dance instructor or singer. Due to this, she hopes to hone her vocal skills in choir in middle school. Her favorite food is the mini pancakes that her father makes, and her favorite drink is flavorful lemonade that doesn't have too much sugar in it. Otherwise, her favorite color and animal are as follows: teal and elephants. Great job Elouise! We look forward to seeing you succeed!
