We are excited to see Mr. Falor transform our High School and accomplish great things. Alma Public Schools would like to thank Tom Torok for his service and wish him well on his next adventure. Today is Mr. Torok’s last day.

We are so fortunate to have Mrs. Ringle as our K-5 Literacy Coach at APS. She has provided valuable guidance to teachers and students across our elementaries!

As an incentive to encourage great behavior in the library, all of our classes earned a visit from Lulu, Ladybug Girl! Lulu read the book, Ladybug Girl, to every class. Following ROARS everywhere pays off!
