Favorite Memory:
"I loved the musicals we did at AHS. They were always the best!"
Influential Staff Member:
"Ms. Sally Ailes was such a wonderful person and had a passion for the Spanish language and education in general. She made learning fun and challenging."
Choosing to work for ACS:
"I want the students to know that people in their community can be and are successful! That being raised in a low-income family doesn't determine your value or your chance to be successful."

"It's important to me to invest in the community that was so important to my education and upbringing. I had so many wonderful teachers and I hope to be that same person for someone else."
Ms. Buehman's story is a reminder that every student deserves someone who believes in them, and she is proud to be that person for our Aviators. 🩵❤️ #RepthatA

The students in Jason Powers' health classes at Alliance Middle School completed a body systems t-shirt project! They learned about their organs by drawing them on a white t-shirt. This allowed students to see the placement of their organs in a creative way. Way to go, AMS Aviators! #RepthatA
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. 🎠🎢
Great job, Aviators! #RepthatA
