Join the Steller Directory!

Each year the Steller Parent Group maintains a directory of parents, students, and Steller staff to help aid in communication, event coordination, and planning of Steller activities.   This is an opt-in directory, and we highly encourage you to join.    Returning parents will only need to confirm their information once at the beginning of each school year, saving time from re-entry.   Follow the link below to join or confirm your information for this year.    Your information is safe with us, and is only used for Steller related purposes.  Tip: when it asks for your students’ teacher or homeroom, choose their advisor.  Thank you!

Join or Confirm Your Directory Information Here

If you have questions, you can email stellerparentgroup@gmail.com. The directory volunteers this year are Juliana Shields and Kevin Hedin.

Many of you have yet to complete the online registration process for your student(s) this year.  All students must be registered before they can signup for classes on the first day of school.  Please go on to your Parent Connection in Q-Zangle and complete the registration process for your student(s).  If you need help with your pin/password for Q-Zangle, please contact Janet or Haley in the front office at (907) 742-4950.  Office hours are from 7:30am – 4pm.

Class Schedule and Course Descriptions

The start of the new school year is quickly approaching and to help you be ready for class registration day we are reposting the schedule and course descriptions for 1st Semester.  There are no changes to the schedule or courses just a change in teachers. Steller will have two new teachers on staff this year.  Louisa Williams, who just moved to Anchorage yesterday from Texas, will be our new Spanish II teacher.  Jazerae Howell, who is also coming to us from the Lower 48, is our new orchestra teacher.  We would like to extend a hearty Steller welcome to our new teachers and let them know how grateful we are to have them join our Steller family!

We are hosting a RUN!

As a joint effort between staff, parents, and students, we will be hosting our first annual February Freeze Up RUN fundraiser on February 3rd at the Abbott Loop Community Park trails.   This is a big fundraising event for Steller and we are off to a good start.   Skinny Raven is handling the online registration (not open yet), and we will be organizing a BIB Pickup event on Feb 1st at Steller as well as staffing the run/walk event.    Your event leaders are:   Becky Gerik, Marianne Pedersen, Leigh Anne Bonney, Karen Gillis, and Kari Hall along with students Emily McKenzie, Natalie Buttner, and Jacob Nunn and more.    This event comes up pretty fast, so stay tuned to our Flash updates.  Flyers and Posters (like below) will be available soon in the office for you to help us distribute to your workplace, and other places.

This will be a fun run/walk event to not only help with funding but will also help Steller gain awareness in the community.  

Visit the Facebook event posting to share with your friends and family and stay tuned for online Registration availability.
