    Hello amazing Alliance Student, Families and Community,

     

    It was a great first week of school. I got to see so much learning and caring the first week back. I was so proud to get to work at this incredible School.

     

    Upcoming Important Dates:

    • 9/23/25 - Open House (5 PM - 7 PM)- PLEASE JOIN US!!!!!
    • 10/2/25 - End of Term 1 -  Early Release for Students / Registration & Grading in Afternoon
    • 10/3/25 - School Closed - Teacher PD
    • 10/6/25 - First day of Term 2 
    • 10/10/25 - Teacher PD - No school for students

     

    A few reminders about Personal Electronic Devices at Alliance:

     

    All PEDs (earbuds, Smart Watches, Cell Phones, etc…) have to be OFF and AWAY ALL DAY! The one exception is lunch. 

     

    Starting September 2, if a student is seen with a PED during class or anywhere in the building (except at lunch):

    • Warning: All students will be given a warning through being taught the policy, through Information Sessions, Orientation/Success Academy, through reminder upon entering the building, and posted expectations.
    • 1st Incident: A staff member will confiscate the PED and an administrator will store it. The student may pick it up from the main office at the end of their school day. A Stage 1 Referral will be made for PED Incident. Device will be recorded in  Prohibited Item Confiscation Log and a parent or legal guardian will be notified.
    • 2nd Incident: A staff member will confiscate the PED and an administrator will store it. The device will not be returned until a parent or legal guardian comes to the school to retrieve it. A Stage 2 Referral will be made for breaking the PED Policy.
    • Repeated Incidents: A staff member will confiscate the PED and an administrator will store it. A parent or legal guardian must retrieve the device and meet with an administrator to establish a PED Plan. This is an individualized plan that will take place for a predetermined amount of time. PED Plans may include turning in your PEDs at the beginning of each day and/or having a daily check-in with a staff member.

    Please check out the resources posted below,

  • Two PPS Educators Named OnPoint Educators of the Year

    6/2/2025

    Two exceptional PPS educators, Ricardo Barber and Hang Jones, were recently named OnPoint Educators of the Year for 2025.

    As part of this prestigious honor, both teachers will have their rent or mortgage paid for an entire year, and their schools also receive a $2,500 donation. 

    Ricardo Barber teaches third grade at Faubion, and Hang Jones serves as a social worker at Marysville Elementary. 

    The OnPoint Prize for Excellence in Education celebrates educators who embrace innovative teaching techniques that ignite enthusiasm in their students. 

    Congratulations to Ricardo Barber and Hang Jones! And thank you both for everything you do to make a difference in the lives our students.

  • Student Filmmakers Showcase Their Monster Talent

    5/22/2025

    The assignment their teacher gave them was simple – make a short film that begins with a phone call and ends with someone hanging up. Benson first-year students Dylan Martinez-Torres and Dariel Soriano Zamora ran it all the way to a small city populated by two very big and rather iconic monsters – Godzilla and Hedora.

    The result, Sorry, Wrong Number, is one of the more than 90 films entered into the annual Best of PPS Film Festival. The festival is a celebration of exceptional student filmmaking that includes a showcase at the historic Hollywood Theatre. 

    The fourth annual installment of the festival took place on May 21 and included a screening of 13 standout films. The films came from all over PPS and ran the gamut from Dylan and Dariel’s monster short to documentaries, film noir, and broadcast journalism.
