Alcona NHS hosted a spooktacular Coffee for Veterans event this weekend. Our group service project is to give back to our local veterans by hosting monthly activities where veterans and their family can gather, chat, enjoy some goodies, learn more about opportunities, and win some prizes. Encourage a veteran you know to join us the first Sunday of every month from 2 to 4 pm in the Alcona High School auditorium lobby.
LOOKING AHEAD:
Winter sports are coming soon! October 14 for MS Girls Basketball; October 21 for MS Boys Basketball; November for high school basketball, wrestling, bowling and cheer!
IF your son/daughter did NOT do a FALL Sport, make sure they have their SPORTS PHYSICALS renewed and ready by the first day of practice!
GO TIGERS!

English in the Real World students got a quick lesson on sewing from Nurse Carter today! They are researching and planning their road trips while also preparing for small disasters along the way. They also learned the basics of CPR and first aid.
Creative Writing students met with Mrs. Dellar's kindergarten class to begin this year's Children's Book Project. They read books, wrote together, and even had a chance to play. Lots of smiles!

The Alcona MS Kart Crashers have opened their season with a match against Pierce MK Varsity in the first Middle School state league. Alcona middle schoolers will be competing this season in Mario Kart 8 and look forward to growing the Alcona E-Sports program, practicing new maps and hopefully growing to include other titles. Though the enrollment period is closed for competitive play this fall, we are always accepting practice squad members for the high school and middle school teams. We are practicing on Wednesdays and Thursdays with games on each Wednesday afternoon throughout the first semester. For more information about Alcona E-sports, please contact Coach Stevens, Coach Thomas, or Coach Brunger.
