Today is the first of two Parent-Teacher Conference days. Reminder that conferences could be scheduled as in-person, video or phone. If you are scheduled to attend in person, please limit the quantity of people attending to parent or guardian, check yourself for symptoms and reschedule if necessary, and mask the entire time you are in the school building.

If you enjoyed the parade and game tonight, remember that Alma College will be celebrating Homecoming tomorrow.
The parade will begin at 11 a.m. at the corner of State and Superior and end at Harvard Street and Superior. There is always a lot of candy for spectators.
Following the parade, in the Heritage Center parking lot there will be a food truck lunch fair that is open to the public.

And many other great memories.




So many other great floats in the parade tonight.

Congratulations to the August 2021 CFX Golden Apple Award Winner, Mrs. Fornusek! Mrs. Fornusek is an educator who pours her heart and soul into her classroom and students. Her dedication to the profession and students is not to be mistaken. You will often find Mrs. Fornusek at school late into the evenings. During that time, she’s planning and preparing lessons and activities to enrich her students’ learning! She not only puts a large focus on her students' academic needs but also their social-emotional needs. While teaching during a pandemic last year, she did a great job reminding her colleagues that we need to make sure our students and ourselves are well emotionally, and not to stress over the other everyday stressors this profession can cause. Mrs. Fornusek's Fifth Grade students and colleagues are blessed to have her in their lives!

Due to one third of 8th grade being identified as a close contact, Alma Public Schools has decided to flip 8th grade to remote instruction. Remote instruction means that 8th grade students will not need to report to school for their instruction. Instead, beginning tomorrow 9/14/2021, each 8th grader will be required to join their class via Google Meet for video instruction. Attendance daily and for each period will be required. 8th grade remote instruction will be in effect through 9/20/2021. Students will return to face to face instruction on Tuesday, September 21, 2021. This does NOT impact any other grade level.
Sincerely,
Stacey Criner
