All Pine Avenue students were fortunate enough to enjoy the Lion Heart Experience in the high school gym yesterday. We learned about identity, trust, belonging, and the value of the person you see in the mirror. A powerful message indeed!



Important message for Friday, 12/10/21

We are so thankful for Alma Police Department! Officer Mueller stopped by today with Blue, the department service dog, to visit our students and staff. Smiles were a-plenty as they made their rounds through several classrooms. 💙🐾🖤
