Alto ISD students turned out in a big way for the student-led See You at the Pole this morning! Around 150 students gathered together to lift up their school, community, and nation in prayer. 💛🙏🐝


📣 For the remainder of football season, pep rallies will begin at 2:30 p.m. 🎶🏈🐝
This schedule allows our Junior High and JV football players, band members, and cheerleaders to participate before heading out for their away games. We love seeing all of our Yellowjackets come together to cheer on one another! 💛🖤
As always, the public is invited to pep rallies, but must sit in the designated area. Please do not enter the student section, and remember that students may not be picked up from the pep rally. Thanks for understanding!


🎉 It’s time to celebrate our Alto Elementary Students of the Week! 🎉
These outstanding students have shown great character, hard work, and a positive attitude. We are so proud of their efforts and the example they set for their classmates.

Several fourth graders recently read Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes by Eleanor Coerr. Today they successfully made their own paper cranes...and learned that origami is not easy!



Reminder to Alto ISD Families:
A new Texas law (Senate Bill 12) now requires parents and guardians to provide consent before schools can offer certain physical or mental health services to students. We can no longer assist your child with routine needs unless it is a life-threatening emergency without a signed consent form on file.
For example, without your consent, we cannot:
• Provide an ice pack for an injury
• Offer basic care if they aren’t feeling well
• Allow your child to visit the counselor if they are upset during the school day
Forms were sent home with all students. Please complete the form as soon as possible so your child can continue to receive these essential services at school. If you need another form, please contact your student's campus office.

Alto Varsity Football will play at Hull-Daisetta on Thursday, September 11, with kickoff at 7:00 p.m. Because Hull-Daisetta is a 2.5-hour trip by bus, Alto ISD will release early at 2:00 p.m. that day.
This early release is necessary so that buses can complete their regular routes and then transport the football team, band, and cheerleaders to the game. We appreciate your understanding!

Our third grade students are practicing greater than/less than while enjoying a friendly game of "Comparing War". Hands-on activities like this make learning stick!




📢 Reminder:
This Friday is a regular school day and all students are expected to attend.
After this week, there will only be one more regular Friday all year — January 23. Remember: When we’re off on Monday, we go to school the following Friday!

Dear Alto FFA Parents,
All students in grades 3–7 brought home a flyer with information about our FFA program. Please note there are a few changes to the rules this year: baked goods, canned goods, and photography will no longer be offered at the Cherokee County Junior Livestock Show.
We look forward to having your child participate in our Jr. FFA program and can’t wait to see them in the show ring at the 2026 Cherokee County Livestock Show!
