October 4, 2018 Happy Fall Y’all! It is hard to believe that it is October already!  We were pleased to announce that Alberton Schools presented our first Students of the Month, one from the Elementary School and the other representing the Junior High/High School.  Congratulations Junior Jordan Taapken and 4th Grader Breanna Turner!  These students demonstrated outstanding leadership skills in our schools and community throughout September. There are several important dates to note coming up this month.  First, this is a reminder that there will be no school on Thursday, October 18th as teachers will be attending  MEA, statewide professional development training for educators.  Picture Day with Lifetouch will be on Wednesday, October 24th, so be sure your student(s) bring their smiles and dress to impress!  Throughout this entire month several field trips are scheduled.  It is important to check with your students often to see if letters and permission slips are being brought home for more information and your signatures.  On Saturday, October 27th, the Fall Carnival will be a grand opportunity to harvest some fun and treat your family to a night out.  Hosted by our generous community group PEAK, the Fall Carnival will be located
