Rapids Report for 5-1-23

 The Rapids Report

May 1st, 2023

Dear STrEaM Families,

It is MAY! And time for ONLINE REGISTRATION! All students returning to ANY ASD school must have completed online registration. Our goal is to have 95% of our families complete this process by the first week in June. See below for more.


The annual spring auction is now live! Visit here: https://sa5c3.betterworld.org/auctions/3rd-annual-anchorage-stream-acad 


Please talk with your child about hands and feet to selves. This has been a constant challenge this school year for us. It includes the new fad of snatching hats or other personal items away from each other. We are working on this on our end, but would appreciate your support in addressing this and helping children understand why it is important. To students, it is in fun and play, and harmless. However, that is not the case. Low level “playfighting” and “horseplay” gets out of hand, and leads to more serious incidents. We need your help in helping them understand that every student has the right to bodily autonomy, and they are not allowed to do this in school.

Please help support this fundraiser by advertising the auction to your friends and family. Thank you to all the families and businesses that made this possible!

23-24 SY intent survey

Parents of current 6th and 7th graders: it is very helpful for planning our schedule and filling seats to know your intent for the coming school year. 

Please complete the survey indicating your intent. This is especially important if you are NOT planning to return to STrEaM. This is NOT for 8th graders- we know they will be moving on!

Fentanyl Awareness

There’s nothing more important than the health and safety of your children. That’s why we are sharing this crucial information with you about the fentanyl poisoning crisis that communities across the country are experiencing. Awareness is key, so we need to educate children about this danger. Staff recently covered critical information on this topic in Advisory. To help you have this conversation at home, here is a link to the free Natural High Fentanyl Toolkit: www.naturalhigh.org/fentanyl

DROP OFF & PICK UP TIMES

Arrival/drop off time is 7:45 AM. The doors are not open and we do not provide supervision until that time. 

Pick up time is 3:00 PM (and 12:00 on Wednesdays). 

Please do not line up for pick up any earlier than 2:45 as the parking lot is used for PE and breaks. If you must arrive prior to 2:45 please park and wait. 

Quyana! Thank you for supporting STrEaM Academy!
