After reading and comparing different versions of the folktale “Stone Soup,” students in Tracy Bowser’s kindergarten class each brought in a food item to make their own pot of soup, mirroring the story’s themes of community and sharing. 🥣 Emerson even brought in the “magic” stone for their soup! 🪨
The classroom was transformed into a market where students shopped with pennies for an item to add to the pot. 🪙 The class then enjoyed the soup together with bread and butter at a table “set for a king.” 👑 #RepthatA

Reading to young students plays an important role in building early literacy skills, strengthening imagination, and showing children that books matter! Crystal Gibbons’ 1st grade class enjoyed special visits recently from Superintendent Rob Gress and Assistant Superintendent Shawn Jackson, who showed the students just how important and fun shared reading can be. We love seeing our youngest Aviators fall in love with reading! 📚 #RepthatA

Kindergartners spent some time talking about fire safety! Will Kinser from the Alliance City Fire Department came for a visit. He shared the importance of fire safety: never hide, yell so firefighters can find you, check to make sure you have smoke detectors, and have a fire safety plan. Several classes even took a picture with him after his visit. 📸 #RepthatA

Alliance City Schools recently held the 3rd Annual Futures Fest! ✈ The event is an evening full of career exploration that supports the district’s vision of preparing all Aviators for Life, College, and Careers.
The event featured a job fair with more than 70 vendors, including employers, colleges, and branches of the military. Students, families, and community members were able to stop by to talk with vendors and gather information about future careers, schooling, and opportunities. The evening also included a career fashion show featuring middle school students.
Futures Fest offers activities each year for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. This year, elementary students read about possible careers and filled out activity sheets about what they want to be when they grow up. #RepthatA
