Principal's Message
Hello Alder Families!
May has been a busy and productive month filled with learning, growth, and memorable events. As always I am proud of the hard work and dedication our students and staff have shown, and I am excited to share some of the highlights with you.
The Personal Financial Literacy Fair for our 8th grade students was a huge success. The event showed students about essential financial skills, such as budgeting, saving, investing, and understanding credit.
The Spring Orchestra Concert delighted audiences this week. Under the direction Ms. Wyatt, our students created wonderful music.

Have a wonderful weekend!
