In this hands-on lab, the fourth grade students explored the relationship between potential energy, kinetic energy, and gravity by designing and testing their own roller coasters. Using materials such as foam tubing and marbles, students constructed tracks with hills, loops, and drops to observe how energy transforms throughout the ride.
At the highest points of the track, the marble had the most potential energy, stored due to its position. As the marble rolled down, gravity pulled it downward, converting the potential energy into kinetic energy, or the energy of motion. The sttudents analyzed how the height of the hills affected the speed of the marble and whether it had enough energy to complete loops and turns.
Through experimentation, students learned how energy transfers and how friction can reduce motion. By modifying their designs, they worked to create the fastest and most exciting roller coaster while deepening their understanding of physics in action!

There are a lot of a great things happening at the Alma Public Library this month!
This week's Student of the Week is Kindergartener, Benjamin OIson. Ben is the son of Matt and Kim Olson, and he has 3 sisters: Lily, Isabella, and Emma. Out of school, Ben loves to watch movies and snuggle up with his big monkey stuffed animal. In school, Ben’s favorite thing to learn about is science. When Ben is older, he wants to be a scientist and work in a lab to test venom. Ben’s favorite thing he’s learned this year in Mrs. Muller’s class is planets, especially Pluto, which is the planet he wants to go to when he's older. Lastly, if Ben could travel anywhere in the world, he would go to South America to see very dangerous animals and tame them.
This week’s Alma High School’s Student of the Week is eighth grader, Lillian Streveler. Her favorite class is FACE (Family and Consumer Education) because she enjoys cooking. Lillian’s favorite teacher is Miss K. because of the teaching style. Next year, Lillian will be in high school; she is most excited to do her favoite sport: dance. Her favorite styles of dance are lyrical and hip-hop, but she is most excited for kick in high school. In her free time, Lillian likes to crochet. Congratulations Lillian on being this week’s Alma High School Student of the Week.

Lower Elementary Parents!
PIE is looking for some extra help AND a new President for the 2025-26 school year! If you're interested in leading this group, but you would feel more comfortable working in a collaborative team, we encourage you to find a friend/partner and act as "co-presidents" together. If you're interested in being a member, but not an officer, we would love to have you, as well!
Many of our members will be aging out of PIE soon, as their children move to the high school wing of the building. There's concern that, without new member involvement and new leadership, we won't be able to continue what we do in the long term. This group is SO important to our little school and one of the things that makes it special!
Our next meeting will be held at 5:30pm on Wednesday, April 9th at Walker's Silvermoon. Please join us! If you have any questions, please contact Sara Bowler at 707.501.8840 or sarakmitchbowler@gmail.com.
The Scenic Valley Pool is looking to hire more lifeguards! Email them for more information.
On Tuesday, eight FFA members— Jaxson Busch, Bo Schams, Addison Johnson, Spencer and Silas Myren, Izaak Mann, Kemper Armstrong, and Savannah Danzinger— along with DeeDee Johnson drove their tractors off the farm and to school! High school students got to advocate and educate elementary students on many aspects of agriculture, including “What is Agriculture”, “Healthy Foods Produced by Farmers”, and “Technology in Agriculture.” Concluding the presentations, students got to hop in the driver’s seat and see what driving a tractor is all about!
Happy National Agricultural Month! THANK YOU, Farmers!
Rivermen Industry students and Mr. Josh Reed hosted a learning event at the Alma High School this evening. While creating a wooden planter, the participants learned how assemble the finished product by using a table saw, air nailer, an 'assembly' block, drill and a sander. Each participant left with a fabulous, free product, just in time for the spring planting season. Thanks to the Rivermen Industry students for prepping 'behind the scenes' to host this event for the community.
Congratulations to the Alma-Pepin Eagles Track team, which stepped up their competition level and competed against higher-level teams in the Stout Invitational! Finley Noll ran a time of 9.57 seconds in the 55-meter hurdles and placed 2nd overall. Congrats Finley!

This week's Elementary Student of the Week is four-year-old Ruby Reidt. Ruby is the daughter of Ryan and Amber Reidt. She has two sisters, Natalie and Ivy. Her favorite color is blue, and she loves lions. She enjoys reading The Lion Book, and her favorite thing to learn about in class is toys. At recess, she spends her time playing with dinosaurs in the sandbox. Her favorite brain break is The Floor is Lava, where she jumps from one safe spot to another to not get caught in the lava. When it's time for lunch, she looks forward to eating donuts, her favorite school meal. Outside of school, she enjoys playing with her tractors and spending time with her two sisters. When Ruby grows up, she wants to be a nurse, just like her mom. Congratulations, Ruby, on being this week's Student of the Week!
This week’s Alma High School Student of the Week is eleventh grader, Bo Schams. He is the oldest child of Ben and Holly Schams; Bo has two younger siblings, Brody and Brynn. He also has a dog named Luna. Bo’s favorite class is English because he has a good teacher in that class, Mrs. Krzoska. Even though his favorite class is English, Bo’s favorite teacher is Ms. J because she has taught him a lot. After school, Bo plans to become a farmer. Bo spends his free time grilling. He especially enjoys grilling his favorite food, steak. Congrats, Bo on being this week’s Alma High School Student of the Week.
