We are thrilled to share that we have received a perfect score of 100% on our annual Department of Transportation school bus inspection! Our fleet of buses undergoes a rigorous yearly inspection process which ensures the safety and security of our students. We are grateful to have such well-maintained buses for our students to ride on. A special thank you to Jerry Granger and his team as they spend countless hours ensuring our students have nothing but the best to ride on!

Choir Student Sponsorship Opportunity
Alton Community,
Our Soundwaves Choir Department will be attending an event called "Music in the Parks". The cost of this event is $88. It covers park admission and a food stand voucher. As many of you know, this is a large expense for some families; especially when you have multiple students in a family attending. We want to ensure that every student can attend. We have about 8-10 students who need a "sponsor" to cover the $88 cost. If you feel led to be a sponsor, please comment below or email Mr. Cole Barton (colebarton@alton.k12.mo.us). We appreciate any support you can provide.
Once again, Mrs. Whitten went above and beyond providing Mrs. Holesapple's 3rd grade class with an ice cream sundae/rootbeer float party. Huge thanks to Mrs. Whitten and Fuel Express/Quick Connection.
Big Smiles Dental was scheduled to be here on February 2nd, but that had to be canceled due to us not having school. They will be coming this Friday February 16th to see the students that were already signed up to be seen on the 2nd.
Alton R-4 will be closed today due to incoming snow. Stay warm!
Comet Families,
We regret to inform you that the City of Alton will need to turn off water on campus this Friday, February 2nd. This is due to a visitor to the school hitting a fire hydrant, which will need to be repaired. It is a lengthy process that could take most of the day. As a result, we will have to cancel school (02-02-24).
However, to minimize disruptions to your child's education, we will be sending work home with your child on Thursday. This work will need to be returned on Monday, February 5th. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding in this matter.
Mrs. Reese
Little League Sign Up Information!
We are excited to inform you that school WILL be in session tomorrow, January 25, 2024! We can't wait to see everyone!
Comet Families,
After careful consideration, it was determined that the county roads are unsafe for our buses. Alton R-IV will not be in session on Wednesday, January 24, 2024.
