Fat Bear Week is an annual celebration that highlights the brown bears of Katmai National Park in Alaska as they prepare for winter hibernation. Kaley Sloane’s class at Alliance Elementary School followed along, learning about brown bears, their habitat, what they eat, and why getting “fat” is so important for hibernation! Each day, students followed the Fat Bear Week bracket and voted for their favorite bear. Their votes were tallied, and the class winner became the official vote they entered for that day! They enjoyed bear-themed activities, snacks, and plenty of friendly competition as they cheered on their favorite bears! 🐻

The Superintendent's Leadership Group held their first meeting of the year! This group is made up of students in grades 4-12 who have been identified as leaders in their schools! Once the students join the group, they remain until they graduate and serve as mentors to the new students who join each year.
The meeting was a fun one! Students were split into groups and tasked with building a free-standing bridge strong enough to hold a phone for ten seconds. Each group was given the same instructions and materials to start. This activity required the students to communicate efficiently and effectively, be creative and think outside the box, and collaborate well with one another, all qualities of good leaders.
We look forward to more meetings with this fantastic group this year! #RepthatA

How did AHS prepare you for your career?
“At AHS, I had teachers who served as amazing role models and encouraged me to never stop learning. My classmates taught me to be open-minded and that everyone has unique strengths, passions and perspectives to offer. Feeling safe, welcome and supported at AHS inspired me to work towards bringing that same positivity to other schools and communities.”
Favorite Memory from High School:
“I love thinking back on our Senior All-Nighter. It was so much fun and the perfect way to squeeze in some more memories with all the friends we made over the years before graduation.”
Advice for Current AHS Students:
“Two things: First, don't feel bad if you don't have everything figured out. The reality is that no one does. Enjoy the journey, learn as you go and appreciate your own unique path in life. Second, embrace the things that bring you joy and fulfillment. The best work comes from those who genuinely love what they do. Always make time for your passions, hobbies, creative outlets and whatever else brings you happiness.”
Influential Staff Member:
“Mr. Shively sparked a love of learning, particularly in history and culture, that I still hold on to today. His teaching style influenced the way I go about problem-solving and finding answers in academic settings as well as in life. More importantly, he showed me how to be open-minded and receptive to diverse beliefs and perspectives.”
An Accomplishment You Are Most Proud Of:
“I am proud of my daily work on Goodyear's Community Engagement team, where I am empowering our associates to give back to the communities where we live and work. Making a positive impact is incredibly motivating, and I'm proud to be part of that process.”

Some answers include:
❤️ We are a class family.
🩵 So they can meet new friends and learn.
❤️ They matter.
🩵 Everyone is special in their own way. We should treat everyone with kindness.
We have some amazing caring citizens at AES! Keep up the great work, Aviators! ✈️ #RepthatA

Graduation Year 🎓: 2010
High School Clubs & Activities 🎺: Band, Basketball, Teen Court and Yearbook
Career 🏫: 1st Grade Teacher at Richard Allen Preparatory and owner of Nova Naturals and Locker Room Customs
Location 📍: Dayton, OH
Higher Education: A graduate of Wilberforce University who is currently pursuing a master’s degree in public administration at Southern University A&M College
How did AHS prepare you for your career?
“Alliance High School prepared me for my career through academics and extracurricular activities. Participating in band, basketball, yearbook staff and Teen Court taught me discipline, teamwork, creativity, leadership, responsibility and the importance of serving my community. Teen Court especially strengthened my interest in criminal justice and public service. These experiences helped build the confidence and work ethic I now use as an educator, business owner and graduate student.”
Favorite Memory from High School:
“My favorite memory from Alliance High School was winning the senior-vs-junior flag football game during my senior year. It was an exciting experience that brought our class together and showed our school spirit. I will always remember the teamwork, energy and pride we felt after winning.”
Advice for Current AHS Students:
“Take advantage of every opportunity, stay focused and never allow setbacks to stop you from reaching your goals. Build meaningful relationships with your teachers and classmates because those connections and memories can last a lifetime. Most importantly, believe in yourself and continue your education. You are capable of achieving more than you may realize. Never forget these years because they fly by!”
Influential Staff Member:
“Mr. Hoopes was one of my favorite teachers and had a positive influence on me. Mr. Fontaine also had a major impact on my life. I feel like we grew alongside him, from his first year at Alliance Middle School through our graduation, when he was our band director. Having him throughout those important years made him a meaningful part of our journey and created memories that I still value today.”
An Accomplishment You Are Most Proud Of:
“I am most proud of graduating from Wilberforce University while balancing my responsibilities as an educator and business owner. I am also proud to be pursuing a master’s degree in public administration at Southern University A&M College. My journey has required determination and resilience, and I hope it shows my students that they can overcome challenges and accomplish their goals.”

Each month, Becky Robertson's 1st grade class will welcome back at least one retired teacher to be a guest reader! Their first guest reader was Joan Skidmore! 📚
She read them a fun, interactive book called “I Say OH You Say NO.” The kids loved participating in the story. Mrs. Skidmore also brought them fun “boots & books” coloring pages for Dolly Parton Day and fall bookmarks to color. 🎨
Thank you, Mrs. Skidmore! The students can’t wait for their next reader! #RepthatA

Students in Megan Harper's kindergarten class have been working on counting! As a fun end to the unit, students were given "recipe" cards to make "math soup." 🍲 They visited stations around the room to collect their "ingredients" (buttons, blocks, etc.). Then, they had to count out the correct number of each ingredient to put in their soup, according to their recipe. When finished, they exchanged bowls with a friend to check each other's work! 😃 What a great activity! #RepthatA
We were seeing double for Twin Day at Alliance High School! 👀 #RepthatA
