Welcome back, Semester 2 letter




Dear Parents and Guardians,

Welcome back! Monday we kick off the second semester, which will be packed with dynamic projects, STEM activities, field trips, guest presenters, Robotics and Battle of the Books competitions, cross country skiing and more. We are excited to engage our students in high quality education!

It is COLD out! We will still offer the opportunity to go outdoors every day because this is Alaska! When it is below zero we won’t require students to go out for breaks. However, they still have the option. Please make sure students have proper winter clothing and are prepared for the weather. If your student is in need of gear, please see Mr. Mokelke or Ms. Biondich.

We’ve made changes to the master schedule, including new electives. Students should retrieve new schedules Monday morning in the lobby. Please call me with any schedule questions or concerns. As always, we strive to offer the most engaging options possible.

This week there is an APC meeting Wednesday at 5:30 PM, room 6.
Ski team practice begins Tuesday at 3:15 PM. Wednesday practice is at 7 AM! Students must have a permission slip prior to starting. Parents and volunteers are needed to support skiing: please contact Mr. Mozen to help out. He can be reached at mozen_howard@asdk12.org

If you can help with supplemental lunches, please contact Mrs. Biondich at biondich_sylvia@asdk12.org or 742-9000. Thank you again to those who have contributed!

We do have a position open for a classroom aide. Please apply online through ASD, or contact us for details! I would be happy to share more about the position and help with the application process.

The lottery for the 20-21 school year is now open. Current students do NOT need to apply. However, share with anyone interested in our program that the time to apply is now! Encourage prospective families to call, email or come by to learn more about our program https://www.asdk12.org/lottery.

Mark your calendars: There is no school on Monday, January 20th.

This semester will be awesome! Thank you for choosing STrEaM,

Principal Mokelke
