As part of their biodiversity project in our school forest, students in the 4th grade investigated what causes the animals eyes to shine in their photos from the remote game cameras. The investigation lead them to a dissection project with cow eyes. Ask you students what they discovered inside!

To help fund their trip they are doing a can and bottle drive. If you have cans/bottles to donate please drop them off in the fenced area outside CLAW Academy; which is located at the entrance to our Transportation Department. Thank you! #alconaschools #closeup

Our 9th grade American Voices students had an unforgettable experience yesterday on their field trip to the Henry Ford Museum! From exploring powerful moments in American history to making real-world connections to what we’ve been learning in class, it was a day full of discovery and inspiration. The experience didn’t stop there—students also enjoyed a cultural dining experience at Benihana in Dearborn, where they stepped outside their comfort zones and experienced something new together. A huge thank you to Inspiration Alcona and the Lincoln Lions for making this opportunity possible through their generous grant support. We are so grateful for community partners who invest in our students’ learning beyond the classroom!
