Alma Primary School got in on the celebration a couple of days early, and it was such a fun time! Four of our students were celebrated along with their families, and several classrooms joined in to make it even more special.
Students “rocked their socks” by wearing bright, mismatched, and fun socks to represent the uniqueness of the extra 21st chromosome - and there were some great ones! 🧦
Members of the Airedale boys' basketball team also stopped by to help with activities and celebrate with students, which made the morning even more exciting.
Big thank you to Mrs. Corder for organizing everything and to all the staff who helped make it such a special event!
Students rotated through fun indoor and outdoor stations, showing off their skills, teamwork, and competitive spirit. Huge shoutout to Coach Jones for planning an awesome event, and to the Alma High School NJROTC students for helping everything run smoothly!
It was a high-energy day filled with smiles, teamwork, and lots of fun from start to finish!

Congratulations to our outstanding honorees:
• Alma High School: Michele Ikenberry
• Alma Middle School: Keith Reeves
• Alma Intermediate School: Jennifer Anderson
• Alma Primary School: Tiffany Gregory
Each of these educators represents the dedication and care that can be found in classrooms across the district, and we are proud to celebrate the difference they make for Alma students.
In addition, Alma Middle School was recognized for its recent redesignation as an Arkansas Diamond School to Watch. This honor highlights the school’s strong commitment to academic achievement, student growth, and creating a positive and supportive learning environment for all students.
Kindergarten is buzzing with learning during literacy small groups in Mrs. Thomas’s and Mrs. Banks’s classrooms! Instruction is tailored to each student, keeping it engaging and fun. It’s wonderful to see our Airedales building reading skills and confidence every day.
A big thank you to these teachers for their dedication to student success! 💛

📚 Dr. Seuss - Read Across America Week
Get ready for a whimsical twist on a classic favorite! On Thursday, March 5, we’ll be serving Green Eggs and Ham (dye-free!) to honor Dr. Seuss and the joy of reading. Don’t miss this tasty way to celebrate literacy and imagination!

Let’s eat, read, and celebrate together!

This annual favorite brought lots of excitement (and a little extra noise!) to the halls as students cheered on the Slime a Teacher event. Even better - every dollar raised goes directly toward new PE equipment for our APS students.
Fun, laughter, and a great cause… that’s a win-win for our Airedales! 💚
