Activities with elementary students before, during and after their school day
During Alma's Winter Term break, students participating in the five service trips are delivering daily updates on their experiences from Feb. 26-March 5. To see what each trip accomplishes, visit the trip links during the week.
Spring Term at Alma is a one-month immersion on a single academic topic that offers learning experiences not typically available during the more traditional 15-week fall and winter terms. For example, during Spring Term ‘07 students explored important cultural sites in China, worked to restore a Jewish Holocaust cemetery in Poland, analyzed ethic politics in Scotland, and studied medieval literature in London.
