We would like to shine a spotlight on one of our students, Tristan Ashdown, who has been doing remarkable work in his time at ALC. Tristan has been taking instruction on loading material for a CNC router from Taylor Berg, showcasing his dedication to learning and growth.

Not only has Tristan been working hard on his practical skills, but he is also developing an accurate model of the CNC machine for Symmetry Engineering. This project demonstrates his ability to apply theoretical concepts to real-world scenarios, a skill that is vital in the engineering field.

Engineering Pine Wood Derby Fun

Over the past few weeks, our students have been deeply engaged in designing and creating their own 3-D pine wood derby models. This hands-on project was not only a fun and engaging activity for our students, but also an opportunity for them to apply and test their knowledge of engineering principles, particularly aerodynamics.

The variety and creativity of the car designs were a true testament to the ingenuity of our students. Each student had the chance to experiment, through trial and error, to find the perfect combination of elements to create a speedy and efficient derby car. They all showed such resilience and determination in tweaking their designs to get the best performance possible.

We are delighted to announce that our Open House was a huge success! The event, which was attended by many of our wonderful parents and students, was a memorable occasion filled with camaraderie and shared excitement about the coming school year.

We would like to extend a big "Thank You" to all the parents and students who attended our Advanced Learning Center open house over the last 2 nights. Your participation made the event a resounding success and we are immensely grateful for your involvement.

We're thrilled to share that one of our courses, "Teaching as a Profession," led by the dedicated and dynamic Laurie Hansen, recently treated students to a unique, fun, and hands-on learning experience.

With the help of robots from UVU’s Creative Learning Studio, the future educators in Ms. Hansen's class got a glimpse into the possibilities of technology in education. They had the opportunity to design algorithms and choreograph robot dances, blending creativity with technical skills in an immersive learning environment.
