Happy Thanksgiving, Enjoy the break!
Hello ALMS Families,
Happy Wednesday, short week here at ALMS, but we still have a lot going on!
This week our message is simple. Thank you to all of our ALMS parents, families, and care givers. Your dedication to the children is remarkable. Thank you for all of the support we receive daily as we partner together to INSPIRE, EDUCATE and EMPOWER our students. The support of the ALMS PTA allows us to have many special moments for the children and the faculty. Many thanks for all you do. Thank you to our amazing staff that supports us every day in so many ways. We are wishing you all a peaceful holiday with time spent with loved ones.
Regards,
Camille Edwards-Thomas
Principal

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!
