The Great Potential Trip to Suny Purchase
A group of ALMS 7th and 8th grade students traveled to Suny Purchase to learn about college and careers. They spoke with University Police Officers, Arts Managers, Hospitality, and Technology Service Staff members. Our ALMS group learned about what college was like for those presenters. They were also able to eat in the main dining hall of the campus. Finally, the students in attendance were able to walk away with gifts courtesy of Suny Purchase including; earbuds, sweatshirts, t-shirts, and more!
A big thank you to Suny Purchase and Ms. Tiauna Washington for helping to put this event together!

Chromebook Responsibilities
To ALMS Parents and Students,
As a Middle School student, you are required to come to school with your district-provided chromebook charged. The district-provided chromebook is also your responsibility; if it's in your backpack, locker, on a bus, or at home, you must keep it protected from being damaged or lost/stolen.
Please refer to the AUP and Device Loaner Form, which you have signed with your parent/guardian, and review the terms and conditions listed on the form both inside and outside of school. If you have not already signed the AUP and/or Loaner Form, please click on the link above.
To all parents/guardians, please speak with your child regarding Chromebook care and responsibilities. Some of the computers are damaged due to students spilling liquids, tossing them to the ground during recess, getting knocked around in a backpack, or dropping them. Damaged Chromebooks are subject to fees. You may want to consider purchasing a case as was indicated on the school supply list.
You can refer to our Acceptable Use Policy and Device Loaner Form (linked above) for the CSDNR policy.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding!
