The final student of the week is preschool student, Clayton Kurtzweg. Clayton is the son of Alexander Kurtzweg and Kaytlin Bacinett; he has two siblings, Sydney and Lilly. At home, Clayton loves to play with his dog, Dodge, and he loves to watch his favorite TV show, Power Rangers, especially his favorite character, the blue, pink, and red one. At school, Clayton enjoys learning about ABC patterns with Miss Hannah, his favorite high school helper. His imagination goes far; Clayton was asked if he could have any type of pet, what would it be, and he responded with, “a giant dog that can talk and has powers.” At lunch, Clayton hopes it is his favorite meal, pepperoni pizza. Clayton already knows what he wants to do after school; he is going to be a store seller. Congratulations, Clayton, and great work throughout the school year!
This week's High School Student of the Week is 7th grader, Sophia Larson. She is the middle daughter of Adriana and Darin. Her older sister is Oliva and her younger brother is Carter. Sophia is very active in school. She participates in volleyball and softball. Outside of school, she enjoys playing with her bunny, Muffin. She also likes to read books. When asked what advice she would give to up coming middle schoolers she said, “Get your work done so that you have free time and be able to play sports.” Sophia plans on getting a Bachelor's degree and becoming a teacher after high school. She is looking forward to summer, so she can go camping and have a blast swimming. Congratulations Sophia Larson!

On Wednesday, May 14, seniors participated in their final Eagles and Eagletts at Alma Area Schools. Besides it being the seniors' last time for this event, it was also the last Eagles and Eagletts of the 2024-2025 school year. The students enjoyed donuts for breakfast, which were made by the student council. After that, the students got to play outside before continuing with the rest of their school day.
The annual tradition of walking through the halls occurred on the seniors' last day. As a final goodbye before graduating on Friday, the halls of Alma filled up with students of all ages and their families. The seniors are applauded by their peers for their hard work over the last 12 years. Congragulations seniors, we are all so proud of you!
This summer, the school is undergoing multiple renovations, including a brand new Family Consumer Education kitchen, a fabrication lab, and various new floors. The students have been able to help demo the old kitchen since the renovations are starting early in the summer. We can't wait to see the new editions to Alma High School.
Join us in celebrating the Alma High School Class of 2025!
The graduation ceremony will be held this Friday, May 16th, at 7:00 PM at Alma High School.
We hope to see you there!
The seventh and eighth grade classes had the opportunity to tour the Lock and Dam. Some students even had the chance to operate locking boats in and raising and lowering the dam. The classes also watched a barge pass through the dam. They learned various comparisons of how much a barge can carry compared to trains or semi-trucks. This was an amazing opportunity and a great learning experience for the students.
This week's High School Student of the Week is ninth grader Imani Lopez-Elliott. She is the daughter of Addie Elliott and Gabriel Lopez-Carrier. Her favorite class is English because she finds it fun, especially with her favorite teacher, Mrs. Krzoska. Imani loves playing volleyball, which is her favorite sport. In her free time, she likes to play sports, read, spend time with her friends and family, and eat her favorite food is chicken alfredo. When she grows up, she hopes to work in the medical field, so she can help people who are sick. Congratulations Imani!
This week’s Alma Elementary Student of the Week is sixth grader Abby Ruff. Her favorite class is Social Studies because the teacher is fun. Although she is in sixth grade, Abby’s favorite teacher is third-grade teacher, Mrs. Baab. When she is older, Abby would like to become a cow breeder as she believes this occupation would be fun.
