Our next APS Staff Spotlight features High School Art teacher and Varsity Boys Basketball Head Coach Chris Brown. Mr. Brown is dedicated to ensuring Alma is a great place to learn and grow. We are proud to call him a Panther! Let's hear what he has to say about his work here at APS:
"Working at APS is so much more than a job to me. I graduated from Alma in 1996, my wife teaches at AHS and my own children are students at Hillcrest and DLPMS. The relationships I have built with my students, athletes and co-workers are extremely important to me, but when you see a kid you've worked with gain confidence, understanding or success there are few better feelings."

During Trimester 2, we saw some challenges with consistent attendance across the district. We know that winter illnesses played a big role in that, and we appreciate families doing their best during a tough season. As we move into Trimester 3 and leave the winter months behind, let’s work together to make regular attendance a priority. Being in school every day helps students stay connected, continue learning and finish the year strong!
Below you’ll see some of our Trimester 2 attendance data as we reflect and work toward even stronger attendance in Trimester 3. Thank you for partnering with us to support student success!

Once again, APS will be participating in the MI Student Voice Perception Survey for all parents and staff, and for students in grades 5-12th only.
The MI Student Voice Perception Survey helps schools better understand students’ experiences in school. The survey asks students and parents about their sense of engagement, belonging, and social-emotional learning so their voices can help guide school and district improvement efforts. This feedback provides a broader picture of school quality and helps inform decisions about instruction, supports, and school environments beyond academic test scores.
The Parent Survey will be open from Monday, March 9th, through 4 pm on Friday, March 20th.
