Nikki is always busy as she participates in band, choir, BCPC, Teen Court, and Forensics. Outside of school, she enjoys reading, watching movies, and photography. Once Nikki graduates from Alma, she plans on going to cosmetology school in Eau Claire; although, she will miss the close-knit community in Alma. Great job Nikki, and keep up the good work.

Her favorite colors are purple and yellow. When asked what her favorite part about coming to school was, she said, “I like to learn so I can be a Doctor,” which is what she wishes to be when she grows up.

Hello, everyone!
The fundraiser has been extended!!! It will now go through MONDAY, November 11th!!! We have just a handful of days left!
We could really use your help earning new playground equipment for our kids!!! We have earned over $600 with just 15 sellers participating, so imagine what we could earn if every student signed up and sold even just ONE ITEM! It takes just ONE MINUTE to sign up as a seller. Please see the instructions below. We need everyone's participation to make this fundraiser a success! Let's earn some PLAYGROUND IMPROVEMENTS!!!!
Here are the PRIZES for our top sellers!!!
A giant Pokemon index with over 875 characters and a grippy football for the pool or the rain!
But, don't forget, NEW PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT is the main reward here!
Below is a list of the products that are available to purchase through this fundraiser, along with step-by-step instructions on how to sign your child up to sell.
Coffee (ground, whole bean & K-cups)
Artisan loose teas
Hot cocoa
Chai
Shortbread cookies
Tea infuser basket
We will be using a digital order form, which will make the ordering process super easy using a smartphone or computer. If you prefer a paper order form, please contact Sherry Brevick.
STEP 1:
Please help your student sign up for a Seller ID using the link below. Use a parent's or guardian's email address (not a student/school email address). Your student will be assigned a number and will need this number to get credit for their sales.
GET YOUR SELLER ID# HERE https://www.givingbean.com/listbuilder/?partnerid=dd7e1 (takes just 1 minute!)
You will enter this number in each digital order form when your customers place their orders. If you are not face-to-face with your customer when they order, please give them your Seller ID number and ask them to enter it on their order form (this is very easy to do).
This method is for LOCAL CUSTOMERS ONLY, as these orders will be shipped directly to school (no shipping charges!) at the end of the 2-week period and will be sent home with students or made available for pickup at school. These orders will be delivered by the student or student's parent/guardian. This link will allow you to accept credit cards, cash or check. Customers can use this method to pay by credit card or debit card right there in the order form! If they choose to pay with cash or check, you will be responsible for submitting those payments to school by the end of the two week sale.
***Checks should be made out to Alma Area Schools with "Giving Bean" in the memo line. If you choose to take cash or checks, you will need to enter a special code into the digital order form. This code will be the word "go" along with your seller ID number, for example "go1" or "go23".
STEP 2:
Copy & paste the link below into a text or email to your family, friends and neighbors to give them shopping access! You can also just click on the link if you are physically with your customer and are taking them through the order process yourself.
If you want to make it super easy, you can just copy & paste the entire template below, including the link, into an email or text. Again, these instructions are for "local customers" and the student or student's family will be responsible for delivering these orders.

Today Ms. Burrow's Spanish classes got to celebrate Dia De Muerto. This holiday is originally celebrated on November 1st and November 2nd, but this year we celebrated early.
Some high school boys got a chance to get outside and enjoy one of the last couple days of nice weather while enjoying the new additions to the playground.
Yee-Haw! For day two of Red Ribbon Week, the Alma Schools had many wild cowboys and cowgirls running around.
