Wright Franklin is doing a project for a Passages class, and is in need of musicians to record.

If any Steller musicians are interested, talk to Wright and he will record you or your instrument for free.

Thank you!   -Wright

There may be a little confusion about FAFSA deadlines.

The FAFSA deadline is not February 15th, students still can, and need to, submit their FAFSA.

The 2013 – 2014 school year deadline for Alaska residents to submit the FAFSA is June 30, 2013; not February 15th as I have heard several students think it is.

Alaska: AK Education Grant and AK Performance Scholarship – June 30, 2013 by midnight, Central Time.

Please let me know if I can be of any help.

Steller is accepting clothing this week and next week for Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. This is a different clothing drive from others in that students will be able to exchange clothes that they have outgrown for clothes that they would like to take home. Please bring to school clothing items that you can no longer wear and leave them with Nurse Anne.  On February 14th (Valentines’ Day) you will be able to take home any clothes from those that have been donated.

The exchange is immediately after school in the gym. The locker rooms will be available for you to try on clothing if needed. Please help us make a huge contribution to Big Brothers Big Sisters by bringing in clothes that you no longer want or need.  Then, meet in the gym for a free shopping spree! If you have any questions contact Nurse Anne (742-4963).
