The 3rd Annual Alto ISD Invitational Welding Contest is underway!
Students from four schools are going head-to-head to showcase their welding skills. Alto ISD students who aren’t competing are serving as support staff throughout the day, helping make the event run smoothly. It’s a great day of teamwork, learning, and hands-on experience!

A few important announcements from Alto FFA:
Fresh Country: Orders are being delivered to the school Thursday, 11/20. Please have arrangements to have them pick up from noon- 4:30 pm. NO orders will be able to remain on campus over the break due to not having freezers to keep them in.
CCJLS Entries DUE: The CCJLS entry due date is quickly approaching. We want to remind everyone that entries are due WITH PAYMENT to Mrs. Carpenter by December 2nd. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Mrs. Carpenter or Mr. Davis.
Parents: Attendance is so important to student success! But if your child does have to miss, you can submit a parent note or doctor’s note online. Just remember—each student receives three parent excuses per semester. After that, additional documentation is required for the absence to be excused.

Fourth grade had a special guest to celebrate National Native American Heritage Month! Jennifer Carter, mother of Lillith M., gave a presentation about the Cherokee tribe, brought authentic artifacts, and taught students to sing a Cherokee greeting song. The timing was perfect as our students are currently learning about the tribes of Texas!

Fifth graders had their turn in the mobile planetarium this morning! They enjoyed an engaging lesson about Earth and space—and even getting inside the planetarium was a brand-new experience!
