✈ Donna (Locke) Webster ✈
Position: Principal's Secretary
School: Alliance High School
Graduation Year: 1982
Years at ACS: 22

Favorite Memory:
"I loved high school and had a lot of fun. I participated in lots of clubs and organizations and loved helping with and being in the school plays."

Influential Staff Member:
"Mrs. Brumbaugh was the IOE Steno teacher and I went into the program my senior year. She was a very kind lady and really helped us to be prepared not only with the necessary technical skills for work but more importantly the professional and people skills to be a good employee."

Choosing to work for ACS:
"Even though the position I work in is a year-round one, I like the rhythm of the school year, the slower pace in the summer and the hustle and bustle of the school year. And who doesn't like a good snow day!"

Importance of giving back:
"Both your school and community are only as good as the people who populate them. It is important to be a good member of them and try to make them the best place they can be for everyone."

Mrs. Webster continues to give her best to the school and community that shaped her, making a lasting difference every day. 🩵❤️ #RepthatA

The Junior Construction Trades students at AHS have been hard at work creating handmade wooden holiday décor to share with staff, and their craftsmanship is incredible! From measuring and assembling to sanding and wood-burning, these students showed amazing focus, creativity, and teamwork. We are so proud of the authentic, hands-on learning happening in this program. 🎄🛠️ #RepthatA

A group of four high school students work together in a carpentry or construction lab. They stand around a large wooden worktable covered with cut lumber pieces, tape measures, a pencil, wood glue, and a power drill. All students wear safety goggles. The workshop around them contains tools, workbenches, and machinery, with additional students and projects visible in the background. The students appear focused as they discuss measurements and assembly steps.
High school students work together in a carpentry workshop, building wooden structures. Several students lean over a large worktable covered with tools, screws, lumber pieces, and a bottle of wood glue. A partially completed A-frame wooden structure made from flame-finished boards sits prominently on the table. In the background, additional students gather around another work area, and shelves stocked with lumber and materials line the workshop walls. The environment is busy and hands-on, with students focused on measuring, assembling, and constructing their projects.

✈ Maria (Sams) McDermitt ✈
Position: School Counselor
School: Alliance High School
Graduation Year: 2018
Years at ACS: 4

Favorite Memory:
"My favorite memories from attending ACS are from my time on the AHS girls tennis team. Whether it be early morning practices, tournament days, or team meals, we always had fun!"

Influential Staff Member:
"One teacher who really made an impact on me was Angela Mann, my AP Psychology teacher. She was always kind, made class fun, and always treated everyone with respect. You could tell she truly cared about her students and loved what she taught. Her positivity and the way she made learning enjoyable stuck with me and made her class one of my favorites."

Choosing to work for ACS:
"I came back to Alliance City Schools because I believe in what this district stands for, supporting every student and helping them reach their potential. I wanted to be part of that mission and make a difference in students’ lives the way my teachers and counselors once did for me."

Importance of giving back:
"I believe it’s important to serve the school and community I was raised in because this is the place that helped shape who I am. Giving back allows me to support students in the same way I was supported. It’s my way of showing gratitude and investing in the community that gave me so much."

Mrs. McDermitt is paying forward the guidance she once received, making a difference for today’s Aviators just as others made a difference for her. 🩵❤️ #RepthatA

“I’m truly thankful to work where I do because of the people, the students, and the culture that make this place special. The staff I work alongside are supportive, hardworking, and genuinely care about one another. The students bring energy, personality, and purpose to every day, and they’re the reason it’s so rewarding to come to work.
