As we celebrate the excitement of the first week of school, we also want to take a moment to recognize the dedicated staff members who are celebrating 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 years of service at Alcona Community Schools! What better way to begin a new school year than by honoring the people who have given so much of their time, talent, and dedication to our students and our school community. Their commitment has helped shape countless first days of school, classrooms, memories, and student experiences over the years. We are incredibly grateful for all they do and proud to celebrate these milestones with them. Congratulations, and thank you for being part of the Tiger family! 💙💛 #alconaschools #tigerpride #thankyou
