If you want to know if you are on the "Naughty List" or the "Nice List", all you need to do is come to the ALC.

Santa is sitting in his office that is housed here making his list. 

The students have been having a grand time, checking the list, and checking it twice, to make sure they are on the "NICE" list.  A few of us at the ALC may be in trouble because we have somehow managed to make it on the  "Naughty" List. (We will not name names, but they are aware of their status in Santa's eyes right now.)

Hopefully, before Christmas, they can get that changed so they do not receive coal in their stockings.

The ALC has a competition going on that has been very fun watching evolve. On each side of the school, there is a Christmas tree set up for the different classes located on that side to decorate as a team. The students were supposed to come up with decorations that either represented their class, or that was made as a result of something they could use in their class. It has been very fun to see the creativeness that the students have had.

The Custodians and sweepers even got involved and ended up with a very clever, and well thought out tree. Spearheaded by Jason Hanks, they came up with a real winner of what we've entitled the "Bucket tree". It has many clever decorations, especially the star they fashioned out of janitorial supplies.

The ALC students were able to go and tour the Microsoft building. The students were not able to tour the building, but see everyday workings going on, and ask questions.

It was a very informative field trip for these students.

Thank you to Microsoft for allowing these students this opportunity.

The ALC was excited to be able to offer an Architecture & Design class this year. We were even more excited to have the teacher attached to that class, joining the ALC faculty. The new teacher is Adriane Wilson

Adriane was born and raised in Orem, Utah. Attended Timpanogos High School. Then studied Earth and Space Science Education at Brigham Young University. Served an LDS mission in Slovenia. Later went to the University of Utah for a Master’s degree in architecture, and after which, became a licensed architect.

Creative ALC student Kieran Grant put in over time to create a one of a kind corsage for his prom date.

Kieran 3-D printed the corsage and then hand painted the details. His date was very impressed by his work.

Way to go Kieran.  Way to show us what can happen when you use you imagination and the resources here at the ALC.

The ALC students love to work on the laser printers. A few of them are getting quite talented on it. It is so fun to see the projects the students come in to show us.

 In this featured photo, JT Nebekar displays the phone case he created on the laser printer. Also pictured are Trenton Clement and Corey Mohn an ALC partner from Blue Valley CAPS.

Pictured above are ALC students, Bella McCombs, Abigail Macias, Tava Hickman, Celeste Rose, Jerica Smith and Nicole Sade. These students were fortunate enough to be able to participate in the Women Tech Council Awards held at the Grand Hotel in Salt Lake City. The students were able to enjoy an amazing meal while the awards were presented. Each girl also had the opportunity to meet with mentors that encouraged them to seek opportunities for growth in their choose careers. It was a great celebration for all involved. Huge Thank you to Ms. Hair for taking time out of her schedule to take these girls up to this event.

Pictured above are Mariyam Shareef Oracle employee, Jayleen Vargas, Marion Covington, Kailee Richman, Alyssa Lunceford, Jerica Smith, Ronda Hair Advisor, and Jenna Awtrey.  ALC students were invited to participate in a tour of Oracle in Lehi. The girls were able to tour the facility, ask questions and get input about career options during their tour. A big thank you to Oracle and Mariyam for hosting our students.

The other day, ALC student, Byron Jones surprised Mr Hall with this amazing framed sketch. Mr. Halls was so touched by the detailed sketch that Byron took time to do for his teacher. Mr. Halls our aviation teacher is a favorite among our students. We’re privileged to have students like Byron here at the ALC.  Thanks for sharing your talents Byron.
