This week at Connections!

Connections 4th grader, Rose Burke, is the winner of the Capitol Christmas Tree essay contest sponsored by Senator Lisa Murkowski.

The Capitol Christmas Tree is coming from Alaska this year. Rose and her family get to travel to Washington D.C. to help light the tree. Rose will get to read her essay during that event as well. We will share her essay after she shares in to the country that day!

Congratulations Rose!!

ALYESKA SKI DAYS!!

We have scheduled a couple of fun filled days in February, at Alyeska and are truly hoping you can join us there!!

Below is the flyer with all of the information you need.

PLEASE take a close look at the rate sheet (included in the flyer), as we have been given some great group rates and discounted lessons!

For lessons we must have 20 + students, participating per group session to take advantage of this great deal. But even more than that, this is a great opportunity for your students to learn and enhance their skiing and snowboarding abilities; thereby giving them skills, confidence, and a much better time on the mountain!

The sign-up links for Thursday, Feb 20th & Friday 21st are in the flyer as well. You should receive an email verifying that you have signed up for the program, if you do not, please let me know. Once Julie sees you on the roster, she will reply with an email verifying your choices, amounts and other details. Please give her a call if you do not hear from me within a few days of signing up. 907-224-9035.

The Attached Alyeska Rental & Waiver form needs to be submitted for every participant, even if not taking lessons or rentals. Please after signing up, fill out and return to Julie at jlindquist@kpbsd.k12.ak.
