🎓 Kai'vion Thomas 🎓
Kai'vion will be attending Walsh University to study exercise science.
During his time at AHS, he was involved in football, baseball, track and field, 99th squadron and the sports medicine career tech program.
Positive staff member:
"Mrs. McKnight has made a positive impact on me during my high school time because she has always kept me motivated and in line. She's been a mentor to me during my time here at AHS. She taught me how to be responsible, she taught me more manners and how to deal with adversity."
Piece of Advice for Class of 2027:
"Start before you feel ready whether it’s applications, scholarships, or planning your future. Waiting for the “perfect time” just creates stress, but taking small steps early gives you room to improve and figure things out. Progress matters more than perfection."
What will you remember about AHS:
"The connections I built and the memories I made will stay with me long after graduation."
Where do you see yourself in 5 years:
"In five years, I see myself finishing college and working toward a career in athletic training. I plan to continue being involved in track and field while gaining hands-on experience helping athletes stay healthy and perform at their best. I want to be building a strong career in athletic training while continuing to grow both professionally and personally."
Congratulations, Kai'vion! ✈ #RepthatA #AHSClassof2026

🎓 David Wang 🎓
David will be attending the University of Mount Union as an Investment Alliance Scholar with plans to study biology.
During his time at AHS, he was involved in cross country, track and field, orchestra, National Honor Society and class council.
Positive staff member:
"The teacher that has made a positive impact on me is Ms. Weisel, as she has helped me understand the concept of time management in fast-paced assignments. As well as improve my ability with forming sentence structures in my essays, something in which I struggled with."
Piece of Advice for Class of 2027:
"An advice I would like to give to the class of 2027 is to never doubt your actions as meaningless. Since even the tiniest bit of success should be counted for something and be used to motivate you to achieve something larger."
What will you remember about AHS:
"Something I will always remember about my time at Alliance High School is the fun events we would do in cross country during summer practices. This would include playing kickball, sometimes basketball, and going on our kayak and camping trip just before mandatory practice begins."
Where do you see yourself in 5 years:
"In 5 years, I see myself becoming more proficient and confident in the topics surrounding my major. And hopefully being able to decide the type of field I want to pursue as a career revolving around my major."

Melanie Dubaj's and Kim Cody's classes at Alliance Intermediate School combined for a lemonade tasting activity. 🍋 Students tasted pink and regular lemonade and decided which one they liked better! Then they polled their classmates and graphed and tallied the responses. Pink lemonade was the overall winner!
They then learned about adjectives and brainstormed words that described the lemonade they had just tasted. How fun! #RepthatA
