Alma School is sharing out summer opportunities from the Alma Public Library.
Today the rain couldn't stop us from identifying the tress in Goose Lake Park in Cochrane. The students identified the trees and then did a leaf and bark rubbing to create their own tree identification booklet.
The American Legion Auxiliary recently hosted a poster contest for fifth graders. The theme centered around the iconic red poppy, symbolizing remembrance and honoring the sacrifices of veterans. Rilynn Ganz received first place, Allison Johnson in second, and Ashlynn Jahnke in third. It was an exciting opportunity for kids to showcase their creativity while learning about the significance of honoring our veterans.
Congratulations to Lorna Lisowski! She has been selected to perform in the Wisconsin Middle Level Honors Orchestra! Lorna had to prepare and extensive audition consisting of memorized scales, a prepared class A solo, and sight reading. Lorna is one of four oboists in the entre state of Wisconsin selected for this honor. She will attend a workshop in October in Madison and then perform at the Wisconsin State Music Educator's Convention. Lorna, daughter of Patrick and Amp Lisowski, is an eighth grade oboe student who performs in the Alma High School Band. Her private instructor is Kris Krause of Fountain City. This is a tremendous honor and accomplishment for Lorna and we are all so proud of her. Best of luck in October!
