Rapids Report for 2-6-23

 The Rapids Report

February 6th, 2023

Dear STrEaM Families,

Lottery & Recruitment 

It’s the time of year where we begin recruiting students for the next school year.  We will be hosting school tours on Tuesdays at 10 am throughout the month of February and our student ambassador leaders will be traveling to our feeder elementary schools to present to 5th graders.  If you know someone who is interested in sending their kids to STrEaM next year, please pass on the school tour invite or have them contact us directly for more information. 


Please help us recruit: word of mouth is the most powerful referral. Refer us to your friends and family, review us on Facebook and Google, share our posts and information.

Social-Emotional Learning in Advisory this week:

Wednesday Breaks at STrEaM

Please be sure your child packs their snack of choice. Friends of STrEaM and our donors for the Pantry Program have been seeing a huge increase in the number of students requesting snacks during Wednesday morning breaks. 

Lunch at STrEaM from our Pantry Program

Please be sure your child packs a cold lunch. This week we need CHIPS or GOLDFISH. We do not have a lunch program or lunchroom. Lunch is generally outdoors unless the weather is prohibitive. 45% of our students come from economically disadvantaged homes and we hope to help them with free lunches when necessary. We serve between 8 and 17 lunches every day. Donations of Bread, Peanut Butter, Cheese & Turkey lunch meat are always welcome. Call 742-9000 for more information.

Snow day make-up & Emergency Closures

“Emergency” Project Packets went home to ALL students! Please ensure you have this manilla envelope. Thes packets contain grade-level projects designed specifically for snow days and emergency closures.  

In case of an emergency school closure, students will open these packets and do the Projects enclosed. These projects do not require technology. However, instructions will also be posted in Canvas, and teachers will host zoom sessions to offer support. 


STrEaM is making up missed days due to emergency closure by extending three Wednesdays (on short weeks) to full days in addition to other district calendar adjustments (2/24 is now a school day). 


The following Wednesdays will be full school days (no early release):

Wednesday 2/22 (No school Monday 2/20 Presidents’ Day)

Wednesday 3/8 (No school Friday 3/10 End Q3/Spring Break)

Wednesday 4/19 (No school Friday 4/21 WBU Spring Graduation) 

Online Gear Store

Our online store is open! Visit Anchorage STrEaM Academy Sideline Store. We still have baseball caps and winter knit pullover hats for sale in the front office. 

Quyana!
