Our freshmen students are back in action! They learned about STEM related jobs at Hammond Bay earlier this month and now are learning about the world of environmental protection and the science behind lamprey mitigation. Our environmental stewards learned about physical and chemical prevention methods and ways to protect our beautiful Great Lakes from non-native invaders. These young scientists did amazing and had tons of fun while learning.

A special thank you to @smile programs the mobile dentist for visiting our middle/high school! They saw 52 students total and were able to provide exams, cleanings, x-rays, and simple restorative care. 32 students received their complete dental care, 45 received a fluoride varnish treatment, 391 teeth received a sealant, and there were 39 fillings completed. A special thank you to the Lincoln Lions Club for helping fund the dentist visit for students that were uninsured so there was no fee. The dentists will be back to our middle/high school on November 1, 7, and 8 – Save the date! If any individuals, businesses, or organizations would like to assist with helping cover expenses for students that are uninsured at the November 2024 visit please contact Ms. Kim Carter, ACS Middle/High School Nurse, at phone: 989-736-8534 or email: carterk@alconaschools.net

February Food Corps Update: Both 4th grade classes made homemade butter in a mason jar! Through this activity they were able to construct flavor profiles for their butter; such as Garlic Parmesan, Garden Herb, Cinnamon Sugar, or Salt and Pepper. The students enjoyed the homemade butter on Fresh French bread! Additionally, the Food Corps Lesson during February was about producers and decomposers. Students were able to identify the producers, consumers, and decomposers in a Supreme Pizza Recipe. Students made homemade pizza bagels to conclude the lesson! #alconaschools #foodcorps

Parents of 9th-11th graders. All students (unless they were absent today) have completed their schedule requests for next year by the end of the day today. These should come home to be discussed. Any changes to requests can be made right on the copy of the request sheet and returned to Mrs. VK after spring break. Students taking a college class will have additional paperwork to fill out. Juniors will have this. Sophomores will receive it after Break. These need to be returned as soon as possible.

🎓ACS Early College Spotlight: Only 25 days left for our current 10th graders to apply for Early College! Today’s highlight is ACC’s Van Lare Hall, which underwent an $8.7 million renovation in 2022. ACC’s admissions, nursing program, student success/tutoring center, and more is housed at Van Lare Hall. When 9th graders tour ACC annually they are able to tour the nursing program where they can test their skills in the nursing lab by listening to the lungs and checking the heart rate on a simulation mannequin. Current ACS 10th graders can apply to EC by April 8th at: bit.ly/ACS-EC-App #alconaschools #earlycollege #applytoday
