Students need to bring: good sturdy walking or hiking shoes, a coat for rain/wind, a cold lunch, a full water-bottle and a backpack to hold their things.

Bake Sale

The Student Leadership Special will have a table set-up to sell baked goods on Wednesday, September 21 at 11:30-12:30 to raise money for the Fall Dance.  We could use a few more bakers.  Please contact smith_emily@asdk12.org if you are interested in helping.  We would also appreciate your support in purchasing baked goods that day! :) 

Next Month: Fall Dance!

  • During school hours on Wednesday, October 5 in the WBU Auditorium

  • Students may wear school-appropriate costumes or formal attire 

  • Pizza will be sold at $2/slice.  

  • We welcome snack and drink donations. 

  • Students should bring indoor shoes to dance in safely and a water bottle.

  • Must be present at school that day to attend.  

  • Only STrEaM students may attend.

  • All students will attend, but they do not have to dance.  One side of the auditorium will have tables and games.  A quiet room will be available for those who need it.

  • Organized by Student Leadership Special. Contact smith_emily@asdk12.org with any questions.

Drop-off and Pick-Up

  • Pull as far forward as possible before stopping. Please do not stop if there is space in front of you to pull forward. Pulling as far forward as possible reduces traffic back-up. 

  • Maintain two lanes: inside lane for pick up/drop off, outside lane for passing and exiting. 

  • It is unlawful to be on electronic devices while driving in a school zone. 

  • Drive slowly in the neighborhood & watch for pedestrians & bicycles: many of our students walk to and from school. 

Social-Emotional Learning

Topic this week- Self-Confidence

Lunch at STrEaM

Lunch is generally outdoors at STrEaM, unless the weather is prohibitive. Students must bring their own cold/sack lunch. We keep emergency lunches on hand, and ask for support with providing these: LUNCH DONATIONS

General School Policies 

  • ASA is an Outdoor School. Dress for the weather: We go outside every day! 

  • Dress appropriately for school as well as the weather
