Book Tasting
Mrs. Stout hosted Mrs. Pate's 7th grade literacy classes in the library for a book tasting. A book tasting gives students the opportunity to sample some juicy reads in a short period of time and come away with a wish list of titles. It is a chance to expose students to different genres, authors, and subjects and get them engaged and excited about reading.

Alma DECA and International Exchange Students attend the Razorback Game
While the November 9, 2019, Razorback game was not the best, at least if you were a Hog fan, the Alma DECA members and international exchange students who attended enjoyed a delightful fall afternoon on the hill, calling the Hogs, eating ball park food and just having fun.
This was the first college football game for the exchange students, so it was interesting to see their reaction to the festivities. They even made the jumbotron a couple of times! “It was fun to be around our DECA members and the foreign exchange students who have probably never been to an America football game,” shared Leah Stephens.
“We were happy to share this activity with the exchange students,” said DECA member Lydia Swarnes.
Alma DECA was excited to share this American tradition with the international exchange students.
