Cheryl Jackson's class at Alliance Middle School have been studying apples and their five senses. 👃 Recently, they used their senses to make art with apples! 🍏 They created apples out of crushed tissue paper and stamped with apples. Everyone enjoyed the experience and are looking forward to future activities! #RepthatA




✈ Matthew Horning ✈
Position: Career Exploration Teacher
School: Alliance Middle School
Graduation Year: 1995
Years at ACS: 27
Favorite Memory:
"My favorite memories involve times when I was learning through experiences...a 4th grade play with Julie Poyser, middle school invention competition with Sally Vasilevich, cross stitching in Bill Carli's geometry class, and making a silent film with friends for Jim Ballor's humanities class."
Influential Staff Members:
"My honored educator my Senior year was Jim Ballor. He knew so many things about so many different topics and it was just fascinating to not just learn about English but also talk about movies and music and theater.
I met Gary King when I was in elementary school and he was working at Rockhill. Over the years he moved around in various roles and coaching jobs but was always someone who made me feel important and welcome."
Choosing to work for ACS:
"I recognize that many doors were open to me and many adults pointed me towards those open doors. I felt called to return and help students find their path to success even when their journey might be more challenging than mine."
Importance of giving back:
"I think it helps build trust between teachers and families when they know you grew up as an Aviator. There is something special about working with the children of people who were once my classmates and also seeing former students of mine out working in the community."
Today, Mr. Horning helps students discover their own paths, just as his teachers once did for him—an Aviator Alum inspiring future generations. 🩵❤️ #RepthatA
