22-23 Lottery: Explorers Wanted!
The 22-23 Lottery is open! Please share our posts and spread the word about our program with your family and friends. See Mrs. Biondich for flyers and posters if you have a place to distribute them. Returning students do NOT have to apply in the lottery. However, please let us know as soon as possible if your child will not be returning to STrEaM, as this affects enrollment and seats available. https://www.asdk12.org/lottery
Social-Emotional Learning Topic of the Week
The Social-Emotional Learning topic this week is accountability. Taking responsibility for our words, actions, and impact on others is powerful, and can be restorative and cathartic. When we ask students to reflect and restore after an incident, there is an emphasis on taking accountability for their actions, regardless of the reasons or actions of others. Accountability is a step in learning to self-regulate and build positive relationships.
Academic Policy Committee
APC board meeting is this Wednesday, February 9th at 5:30 PM on Zoom and Youtube. Contact us to be on the agenda for public comment. The Facilities Committee will present the criteria for a future STrEaM facility for APC review and comment.

Thank you STrEaM families and friends. As we begin focusing on recruitment and enrollment for the 22-23 school year, we are remind that our special program exists, continues, grows and thrives because of you: our parents, families, students and supporters. 6 years into this journey, the top way new families and students come to us is still word-of-mouth from those of you who love and support us. We appreciate you, STrEaM community!
