For those who choose a vocational career path, in addition to the Broadcast Arts program, the district offers tech-prep programs for fields like automotive technology, automotive collision repair, computer support and services, construction trades, cosmetology, financial services and risk management, health services and athletic training, horticulture and landscape design, integrated media, welding and fabricating. This is in addition to its offerings of vocal or instrumental music, including one of Stark County’s only orchestra programs; more than 18 varsity and junior varsity athletic programs, and award-winning Academic Challenge and Destination Imagination teams. And, early on Alliance City Schools concentrate on transitioning its littlest students at the Early Learning School (preschool and Kindergarten) to one of the district’s three elementary schools (Northside, Parkway or Rockhill) and into its middle school facility for grades 6-8 with a team focus. The goal is a collaborative educational approach assisted with parental input, which will allow students to adjust to the ever-changing world while growing into the best citizens they can possibly be. The Alliance City School District competes in extensive interscholastic athletic programs under the directives of the Ohio High School Athletic Association in grades 7-12. These programs include track, cross country, wrestling, football, basketball, golf, volleyball, and cheerleading in high school and middle school. High school-only programs include soccer (boys and girls), tennis (boys and girls), swimming (boys and girls), bowling (boys and girls), baseball and softball. The Alliance Aviators have a rich tradition for being competitive in every sport.
