A lot of people ask me, "What is the ALC?"  "What Programs do you have there?"

Our flyer explains a lot of those questions people may be wondering about.

   What do we do?......... We help students reach their highest potential!

Mark your Calendars for the 2016 Engineering Day at the University of Utah, November 5 from 9 am - 12 pm @ the Warnock Engineering Building, 72 S. Central Campus Dr.  

This is one event you don't want to miss. They will have presentations and tours in biomedical, chemical, civil, computer science, electrical, geological materials science, mechanical, metallurgical and mining.

Registration opens Oct. 10th. To register go to coe.utah.edu/eng_day  

This Event is sponsored by Rio Tinto (Kennecott Utah Copper), The U of U, and Pac 12 

Mr. Brandon Arnolds Digital Media class has been busy making some revisions here at the ALC. Those revisions are not on the building, but on the faculty and their faces.

The class says that they plan on doing a poster sized rendition for each member of our faculty throughout the school year. The most recent revision is in honor of our awesome principal, Wade Tischner.

We look forward to the creativity of our ALC students and their future posters.

The Medical Forensics class was recently asked to create a timeline of the history of Forensics. It was amazing to see the hard work and detail that went into these timelines. Natalie Grant, who is the instructor of this course, is always helping the students learn through hands on projects.

It is always fun to see what cool things this class is doing from week to week.

Paying for college can be stressful and financial burden. 

StepUpUtah and UHEAA realize this and will be hosting a Pacific Islander "Paying for College Night" at Mountain View high school on October 5th from 6 to 8pm.  The event will involve paying for college workshops, college fair, and free food.

We encourage you all to share this with your students, particularly People of the Pacific, GearUp, and any Pacific Islander-language dominant students who attend your school. Mark your calendars for this event to reieve lots of information to help you and your stydents to further their education with out worry about the fiancial burden.

Brendan Bakker (SFHS), Tyler Christmas (MMHS), Gavin Deschamps (PHS), Noah Eliason (SHS), Kyle Gordon (SHHS), Rebekah Hair (MMHS), T-Rex Larsen (SHHS), Samuel Oliver (MMHS), Nicholas Paduano (MMHS), and Adam Syndergaard (MMHS) are students in the Engineering Design and Development course which is the capstone course for the engineering program at the Advanced Learning Center.

For all of you girls out there. This Seminar is for YOU!!!

Put on your calendars and plan to register for this fun and informative event.

   The first two weeks of school here at the Advanced Learning Center went off without a hitch. The students seemed to transition into the pace of learning here at the ALC without any difficulty.

    As a faculty, it is fun to watch, as 5 different high schools mesh together to create an atmosphere of friends learning and growing in their education together. It is a unique experience to witness these students grow into life-long friends and even attend each other's school functions, whether they are sporting games, choir concerts or even each other's graduation.  

The ALC held an interactive open house on Aug. 30 & Sept. 6th from 3-7 pm.  Parents and students were able to come and get registration and scheduling help for any students taking concurrent enrollment classes through either, UVU or Weber State University.  We cannot thank enough, the two ladies who spear-headed this open house to make it the success it was.  Huge shout out and thanks to Annette Pukahi, Counselor and Miranda Hjorth, Secretary/Registrar.

These lovely women spent countless hours getting students registered and enrolled into the classes.

Thank you for making sure the students here at the Advanced Learning Center have every chance available to further their education.  

    The start of a new school year can be a bit scary, especially if you are starting a new school. As the students walked into the Advanced Learning Center on the first day of classes, they were greeted with a smiling face. It was also this person's first day at a new school.  This smiling face was our new Principal here at the Advanced Learning Center; Principal Wade Tischner.

He personally greeted each and every student as they walked through the doors on the first day of school, making each one feel welcome and happy to be here. 

Here are a few fun facts and information to help you get to know  Pricncipal Tischner a little better.
