Don't forget Parent-Teacher Conferences are next week Thursday and Friday! Be sure to sign up for a time with your student's teacher(s) as soon as possible. We would love to collaborate with you!

This year’s book fair is being hosted by PaperPie!! On November 6 from 3-8 PM, Brittany Peterson will join us for in-person shopping during Parent-Teacher Conferences. In-person sales are able to be purchased and taken home that day. Payment options will include cash, credit/debit card, Venmo, PayPal, and CashApp. Brittany’s in-person inventory is a fraction of what is available online, but she will bring a great variety - including many of our most popular titles.

There is also an online shopping link, which is open now and can be used at any time. All of the online sales count towards our event sales! Online sales will be shipped directly to the shopper.

Kindergarten got a little spooky this week! 👻 Our students practiced their letters and spelling in ghost foam, and it was scary how good they were! ✏️💫 Afterward, they had some free draw fun to let their imaginations run wild. 🎃

Fourth grader, Sienna Bremer, is this week’s Alma Elementary Student of the Week. During her first year at Alma, Sienna found her favorite teacher, Mrs. Baab. Her favorite class is social studies, where she can work with partners and create slideshows. Throughout the day, Sienna looks forward to going to her Phy Ed class. Sienna has one brother, Axel, in first grade. At home, Sienna spends her time riding horses, creating art, and singing songs by Lainey Wilson. She also has many pets that she tends to in her free time, including chickens, ducks, cats, and dogs. Besides being a great pet, chicken is also her favorite food. She especially enjoys the chicken from the Waumandee County Bar. Congratulations, Sienna, on being this week’s Alma Elementary Student of the Week!

This Week’s High School Student of the Week is 10th grader, Olivia Austin. She is the daughter of Jeff and Donne Austin. Her favorite class is Spanish because she believes learning a foreign language is essential for both life and future career opportunities. Olivia’s favorite teacher is Mrs. Krzoska, whom she loves for her patience, understanding, and ability to explain things clearly. Her favorite food is South African Milk Tart. Olivia looks up to her Aunt Danielle, who is joining Britain’s Army as an HR Specialist. Despite facing challenges, her aunt has remained strong and optimistic, which allows Olivia to look up to her Aunt every day. In the future, Olivia wants to be a forensic auditor when she grows up. Keep up the great work!

Here is the Eagle Weekly for this week!

Second graders are spook-tacularly smart! We’ve been learning all about place value and representing numbers to 200. Students built their skeletons bone by bone while practicing how to break numbers into hundreds, tens, and ones.

Huge shoutout to those who helped support our annual Aces for ALS night. This tradition has gone on since 2022, and this year we raised, $1,484 for the ALS Foundation. All the donations on the baskets and t-shirt sales are greatly appreciated and go to such a great cause.

There's a lot going on at the Alma Public Library in November!

Last week 5th grade got to go on our first field trip of the year. As we are nearing the end of our conservation unit in science, we got to explore our new knowledge of the concept locally. We took a bus all around the community. Along the way we got to observe all of the different ways we can practice conservation, by both persevering and protecting our environment. We learned about blue birds, trout, dairy farms, compost, soil, and so much more. Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time to make this possible for our 5th graders.

Here are last week's high school Alma Pride winners! Congratulations, everyone, and keep up the great work.
