Our First PLC Monday is tomorrow!
Tomorrow, 8/22/22, is our first week with the delayed start on Monday. Remember, our staff district-wide are using the first hour of school on Mondays to work together to focus on improving instruction and student achievement.
Students can be dropped off at 10:05 a.m. on Mondays. Buses will have later pick up times (typically an hour later than the Tues-Fri pick up time). School will start for all kids at 10:15 a.m.
Dismissal time remains the same at 3:45 p.m. every day throughout the week.
Have questions? Check out the website or call us at (907) 352-6100.

KDG and 1st Grade Bus Riders
Parents or guardians are required to be at bus stops with kindergarten and first grade students during afternoon drop off. If you are unable to be at your child's stop, or would like to appoint another adult or sibling as the person allowed to greet your student, please complete this form. Paper copies will also go home with each student. Forms can be returned to school.
Parents Right To Know
Each year, districts and Title I schools are required to provide information to parents, as well as opportunities for them to be involved in the educational decisions that impact their children. Parents have the right to inquire about the professional qualifications of their child’s teacher and/or paraprofessional. This information is explained to parents in the attached Right to Know letter. Distribution of this letter is a requirement under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) detailed under section 1111(h)(6)(A).
