The Rapids Report
February 28th, 2022
Dear STrEaM Families,
We’ve reached the last week of quarter 3! Remember there is no school Friday, or next week. Spring break! We return on Monday March 14th for the 4th quarter.
Last week we sent an update on the district’s move to optional parent-choice masking. ASD encourages students and staff to continue wearing masks, and there are conditions that will require masking, such as presenting respiratory symptoms, returning from COVID isolation, awaiting parent pick-up due to COVID symptoms, or riding buses.
Follow this link to the full parent letter from STrEaM on optional masking.
Please take the family School Climate and Connectedness Survey! This is valuable feedback and helps us to recognize strengths, identify goal areas, and improve our program.

We're proud of and thankful for our positive school culture. During school tours and at the ASD charter fair, our student leaders spoke about the closeness, support, high engagement, and frequent outdoor activities at STrEaM. They also spoke about the low levels of bullying and other serious misbehavior at our school. To hear the perspective of students, shared with prospective students and families, was so positive and encouraging.
In closing, a quote from Rudyard Kipling:
“For the strength of the Wolf is the Pack, and the strength of the Pack is the Wolf.”
We are strong together.
