Today, we recognized two amazing Aviator teachers who have shown dedication, care and support for all of their students! ✈


❤️ Sarah Lantz is the 2026 ACS Teacher of the Year! Ms. Lantz is a 6th grade science teacher at Alliance Middle School. When asked why she was deserving of the award, her students responded with things like, "She's kind," "She makes class fun," and "She cares about us." She is making a positive impact on their lives each and every day!

🩵 Baeli Kimble is the 2026 ACS Rookie Teacher of the Year! Mrs. Kimble is a first-year 1st grade teacher at Alliance Early Learning School. When her students were asked why she was deserving of this recognition, they responded with, "She's sweet," "She's fun," and "She's pretty." Even in her first year as a teacher, Mrs. Kimble is already inspiring some of our youngest students!


Please join us in congratulating these two very deserving Aviators! 👏👏 #RepthatA

At the end of each quarter, Alliance Middle School students take part in an activity day where they pick activities they want to participate in! This can include board games, video games, manicures, crafts, and more.

The activity day gives students time to celebrate their success over the past 9 weeks with their friends. Way to go, Aviators! #RepthatA

Alliance Middle School students recently took their ideas to the next level at the Stark Idea Quest competition held at the Akron-Canton Regional Airport!

Led by Matt Horning, a group of 6th and 7th grade students pitched an idea to create a middle school theater festival aimed at bringing the community together. They didn't receive the top prize, but they got three offers from local community partners who want to help bring their idea to life!

Congratulations to Brady Floyd, ShaRiyah Fortner, Aubree Ross, Aaliyah Rounds, Alyssa Schaffert, Jyllian Smith, Piper Walker, Natalie Eversdyke, Kaiden Gamertsfelder, Andrew Horning and Natalya Jimenez for their hard work and for positively representing AMS. What a great experience! #RepthatA
