Kindergartners spent some time talking about fire safety! Will Kinser from the Alliance City Fire Department came for a visit. He shared the importance of fire safety: never hide, yell so firefighters can find you, check to make sure you have smoke detectors, and have a fire safety plan. Several classes even took a picture with him after his visit. 📸 #RepthatA

"I’m thankful to be an Aviator because this chapter has given me the chance to lead with authenticity, share my strengths, and grow alongside a team that truly values me. I’ve found my home here in Alliance...a place that proves every day that it all was worth the wait and that purpose runs deep. I’m grateful to help shape a culture that every Aviator is proud to rep." 🩵 #RepthatA

Favorite Memory:
"Hitting a hole in one in a golf match against Perry."

Influential Staff Member:
"An influential staff member was Bill Carli. I took every one of his computer science classes in high school."

Alliance City Schools recently held the 3rd Annual Futures Fest! ✈ The event is an evening full of career exploration that supports the district’s vision of preparing all Aviators for Life, College, and Careers.

The event featured a job fair with more than 70 vendors, including employers, colleges, and branches of the military. Students, families, and community members were able to stop by to talk with vendors and gather information about future careers, schooling, and opportunities. The evening also included a career fashion show featuring middle school students.

Futures Fest offers activities each year for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. This year, elementary students read about possible careers and filled out activity sheets about what they want to be when they grow up. #RepthatA

7th and 8th graders in Matt Horning’s Career Explorations class at Alliance Middle School designed an amusement park as a culminating activity at the end of the first nine weeks. The students first learned about possible careers in Arts and Media, Architecture and Construction, and Information Technology. They filled out a short application and were hired for one of eight different jobs.
Students from four different classes worked together to design and construct their Galaxy Adventure Amusement Park. They agreed the biggest challenges were communication between classes, or “work shifts,” and meeting deadlines. 🎠🎢

A flyer for the #LikeAGirl program at Alliance High School. The title “#LikeAGirl” is bold at the top with silhouettes of confident young women on each side.  The left section explains that this free program connects elementary and middle school girls with high school female mentors who are leaders in sports, clubs, and academics at Alliance High School (AHS). The goal is to empower younger girls to recognize their potential and build life skills.  The center section lists event details: Date: November 19, 2025 Time: 6–7 p.m. Location: Alliance High School, Room 235 A QR code is included for registration or more information.  The right section describes the evening’s activity: Mr. Quicci will teach participants photography skills, encouraging girls to capture the world through their own eyes. The text reads, “The girls aren’t just in the photos anymore — they’re the ones creating them.”  Contact information for Mrs. McKnight is provided: mcknightst@alliancecityschools.org . The design uses black text on a white background with light pink graphic accents.

The Alliance City Schools Technology Department hosted the 12th annual Techvember Fest on Tuesday! 🖥

While students had the day off, ACS staff spent the day learning and growing through four in-person sessions that covered everything from using school technology more effectively to internet safety and other tech-related topics. 👨‍💻 The sessions are taught by ACS staff and administrators, tech vendors and local experts who are excited to share their knowledge with staff.

This popular professional development day is always a favorite among staff, who enjoy choosing sessions that fit their interests and help them build new skills to better teach and support students. 👩‍🏫
