Honoring Our School Business Partners
Thank you to our amazing school business partners for supporting our Begich community. This year, Starbucks Chanshtnu (DeBarr location) will receive the Spirit of Tomorrow School Business Partnership Award for their exceptional efforts. They have collaborated with us in creative, meaningful ways from donating to student and staff events to conducting mock interviews for our 8th grade careers class. Begich students give back to Starbucks by delivering the best of our artwork (hand-selected by our very own Ms. Austin), which is proudly displayed in the main entrance of Starbucks.
We are so thankful for Starbucks and all of our generous school business partners!

PE Department News
Happy April & Springtime from the Begich P.E. Team! Bring on the daylight and warmer temps!
We’re excited to get classes outside as we transition to new activities. Melting snow allows for outdoor P.E units such as flag football, track & field, soccer, frisbee golf, and ultimate frisbee. Students can expect to complete their one-mile runs on the outdoor track as well.
As always, please encourage your student to come to class prepared with a can-do attitude. Let’s finish the school year strong, Snow Leopards!
7th Grade Goes to the Movies
On April 26th Team Iliamna and Team Raven will be headed to Century 16 to see a movie. Please look for the permission slip that your student has with all the details. Permission slips and money are due back to your student’s science teacher no later than Friday, April 12th. Our hope is for every student who is eligible to attend the field trip with us. If you have any questions about the field trip please contact your student’s science teacher. For Team Iliamna contact Summer Barkley at barkley_summer@asdk12.org and for Team Raven contact Hannah Souders at souders_hannah@asdk12.org
