Huge congratulations to the Alderson Archery Team! 🎯 These dedicated students traveled to Daytona, Florida to compete in the 2026 NASP Championship and did an amazing job representing their school and community. Finishing 10th in Bullseye and 12th in 3D against teams from across the country is something to be really proud of! All that hard work and practice showed. Way to go, Alderson Archers—you make us Greenbrier County Schools proud! 👏💙🎯

Where curiosity meets community 🤝✨ Through STEAM, students at Alderson Elementary are designing and creating—powered by hands-on learning and meaningful partnerships that bring real-world innovation into the classroom. Students were given the opportunity to make medals for their archery competitions and team gear for their local softball team!

Students at Alderson Elementary who earned their Accelerated Reader points for the 3rd Nine Weeks enjoyed an afternoon of "Old Fashioned Bingo"! Students had a blast anxiously waiting to see if they would get to yell "Bingo!" as each bingo number was called out. Local members of the community came in to assist the younger grades and fun was had by all! #AldersonElementary #CommunityRelationships
