Thank You and Good Luck Ben!
 |
On May 19, 2007 the first place 7th Grade Poster Contest winner from Mars Area School District received special recognition from Honorary Chairperson Ben Roethlisberger.
Almost eight hundred posters were submitted by seventeen Alliance member schools. Forty top winners were invited to the luncheon to have their pictures taken with "Big Ben." The first place poster will be replicated and distributed to all Alliance schools. The luncheon was well attended by community representatives including law enforcement agencies, businesses, faith-based organizations, school administrators and government officials.

Returning schools should update building profiles at this time. Welcome to the following new Alliance members:
Alliance "Breaking the Code of Silence"
is now "On-Demand"
Alliance on-demand video programs are available to Alliance member schools and paid sponsor organizations. Viewing requires a High Speed Connection.

Special thanks to BxVideo for streaming video programming.
