The 2nd graders have been learning all about habitats in science! 🐜🔍 As part of their unit, the students became little scientists as they observed an ant farm right in their classroom!
They watched the ants dig tunnels, work together and explore their habitat while learning about teamwork and the lives of ants. The students also kept journals to record the ants' daily activities and observations.
What a fun, hands-on way to learn about these fascinating little insects! #RepthatA

The students in Kaley Sloane's and Sam Young's classes at Alliance Elementary School practiced their trick-or-treating skills! 🎃 The fun day started with Superintendent Gress reading them a Halloween story. The students then took turns trick-or-treating around the building.
They knocked on each door, said "Trick or treat!" and thanked the staff members who generously gave them candy, bubbles and other small treats.
This was great practice so they'll be ready for trick-or-treating on Saturday! We can't wait to see all their fun costumes! 👻 #RepthatA

How did AHS prepare you for your career?
“AHS gave me the tools that I needed to prepare for my career by giving me the opportunity to be myself and to ask questions, no matter how small. I was taught time management skills, how to effectively communicate with my peers and how to navigate diverse environments, among many other things. I was always encouraged to seek further knowledge and to keep going when things were difficult. This allowed me to navigate early adulthood and reach my goals!”
Favorite Memories from High School:
“My favorite memories will always be the Friday night football games. Nothing made my heart happier than being on the field marching during halftime and seeing our hard work come to life!”
Advice for Current AHS Students:
“Keep going!! Being bad at something initially just means that you have room to grow and become good at it eventually! You won't always be the best in the room, but you can always be YOUR best. Manage your time AND your energy. Be kind and be willing to learn both personally and professionally. You'll be surprised at how you grow when you allow yourself the space to do so!”
Influential Staff Members:
“Mr. Fontaine, my band teacher, and Mrs. Krichbaum, my Spanish teacher. Mr. Fontaine taught me from 5th through 12th grade and showed me how to have fun and still be productive. He taught me what it meant to work hard even when it felt impossible and that even though things felt hard, they were still achievable with enough effort. Mrs. Krichbaum showed me the importance of being inclusive and still being true to yourself. She taught me how to ask for help and how to show up for others when they needed it. These two teachers helped shape me in ways that I will never forget.”
An Accomplishment You Are Most Proud Of:
“One thing I am most proud of is knowing that even though I may not always know how to do something, I always have the ability and strength to learn. With this thought process, I was able to step into a role that I felt ill-equipped for initially and still managed to end up with three promotions after putting in massive amounts of effort and remembering that I can do anything that I set my mind to. I ended up organizing a messy system, streamlining tasks, training multiple people for the position and filling a needed leadership gap.”

Students in Megan Harper's kindergarten class have been studying fall! 🍁 As part of their unit, students went on a leaf hunt, where they each collected several leaves. Each kindergartner completed a leaf investigation, which included looking closely at the leaves with a magnifying glass, drawing their leaves, sorting leaves by color and size, and measuring leaves with blocks. 🔎 What a perfect autumn activity! 🍂 #RepthatA

Alliance City Schools had the honor of hosting the 2026 Stark County Transportation Banquet last night! Nearly 400 transportation employees traveled to Alliance High School, where they were served charcuterie and desserts from the AHS Culinary Arts Career Tech Program and a wonderful dinner provided by the ACS Food Service Department and served by the Culinary Arts students.
After dinner, everyone was treated to performances by the AHS Aviatrix and Jetsetters. Throughout the evening, the county bus drivers and aides who have served 20 or 30 years in their respective districts were recognized by the Stark County Educational Service Center with awards. Safety awards were also presented during the event, along with hundreds of door prizes generously donated by sponsors, local businesses and organizations.
It was a great night spent honoring the hundreds of drivers, aides and other transportation staff throughout the county who ensure students arrive at school and get home safely each and every day. They truly are the "Heroes Behind the Wheel!" We sincerely thank them for their dedication to the students of Stark County!
