Today, Alliance City Schools, partnered with the Ohio Mid-Sized Urban Districts Leadership Collaborative, welcomed over 70 educators from across Ohio to conduct instructional rounds. The educators visited classrooms throughout the district to observe our students and staff and ended the day with sharing their feed back and suggestions with the ACS administration.
We are grateful to all who attended today and we look forward to implementing the feedback to provide our Aviators with the best possible educational experience! #RepthatA

A grade level representative from each grade K-5 have been taking part in Math Advantage Professional Development. There are eight in-person sessions led by a Math Advantage representative over the course of a few months. These training sessions focus on the conceptual understanding of the foundational skills in math (addition, subtraction, division and multiplication). The sessions offered staff research-based diagnostic assessments, learning progressions and high quality instructional tools. As a district, we are working to expand and deepen our knowledge and understanding of the mathematical development for all students. #RepthatA
AIS has a Little Free Library!
The Parent Partner Group at AIS came up with the idea and helped to bring it to life. Students, families and community members can take books to read or leave books for others to enjoy! #RepthatA
Alliance Intermediate School art students in Renee Marinchek's class finished their 3-D self portraits last week! Each student created flowers to attach to their sculptures to symbolize the growth mindset they have. What a great project for the students! #RepthatA

Stephanie Garren is the principal at Alliance Intermediate School!
Mrs. Garren's fun facts include:
1. I tied for "Best Public Speaker" in middle school and would really, really like a re-match.
2. As an adult endurance runner, I participated in a Gatorade research study through the Pepsi Company. It was fun...minus the muscle biopsies!
3. My husband and I have five kids in our blended family (ages 13-23) and I am a grandma of one awesome 1.5yr old boy!
4. My maternal great-great grandparents came to Canton, Ohio straight from Romania. I am fortunate enough to have met that grandma and I am eternally grateful that they made that brave choice. Otherwise, I would not be here!
5. I have been in Alliance as a principal for ten years now. I truly believe that it is the BEST district in Stark County. If you want to know why...just ask me. I love ACS!
