We invite all families to attend the Annual Title I Meeting at Pine Avenue Elementary on Tuesday, September 23 at 6:00 PM. This is a great opportunity to learn more about how Title I supports our students, strengthens instruction, and builds partnerships between home and school.
We’ll share updates on academic programs, family engagement opportunities, and how Title I funding is used to enhance learning. Your voice matters, and we look forward to collaborating with you to ensure every child thrives.
We hope to see you there!

Last week, Alma Public Schools had the honor of hosting the observation portion of a Growing Learning Lab Facilitators through the Gratiot-Isabella RESD. More than 40 teachers, coaches, and consultants from across the state visited five of our classrooms to observe Number Corner lessons in action. Several of our teachers also shared their expertise during a panel discussion, answering questions and sharing insights. We’re proud to showcase the incredible teaching and learning happening every day at APS!
Our Panthers had a great learning week! Stay connected with everything happening at Hillcrest and Pine Avenue! Our Parent Newsletter is your weekly window into classroom highlights, upcoming events, student celebrations, and important updates from both buildings.
