As we begin to finalize plans for our nature trail for student and community use, the district needs a five foot brush hog for maintenance purposes. If you happen to have a brush hog that you'd be willing to sell or donate(with a tax deduction letter), contact oconnord@alconaschools.net ir 989-736-6212. Thank you!
6th-11th grade students participated in a spring fun day today where they rotated between 12 different stations. One of our stations challenged each grade level to paint the most school spirited snow plow. A special thank you to the Alcona County Road Commission for partnering with us for this activity! Staff are voting on the most spirited snow plow and the winning grade will be announced Monday. Great job middle and high school students! #TigerPride #SchoolSpirt
