Souper Steller Needs Parent Volunteers!

We are currently still in need of parents to volunteer for the Souper Steller this Friday.
We need at least 2 volunteers on Thursday 2:00-4:00, and at least 2 volunteers Friday morning from 8:30-12:45.
We rely on parent help to keep serving warm meals to the Steller community.

If you are available to help at either of these times, please contact Emma Kramer at emmakkramer@gmail.com.
Thank you SO MUCH for your continued support.

2018 PEAKS State Assessment

The Performance Evaluation for Alaska’s Schools (PEAKS) is Alaska’s summative assessment administered to students in Grades 3-9 (English language arts and mathematics) and grades 4, 8 and 10 (science) each spring. The purpose of a large-scale, summative assessment is to provide parents and schools an overall picture of a student’s progress in meeting the Alaska standards at his/her grade level. The assessment is taken on the computer and is not timed, but each content area takes approximately 100-180 minutes.

Parents can locate resources for the PEAKS assessment, including directions for PEAKS Practice tests, called Online Tools Training and PEAKS Tutorials (under Frequently Asked Questions), on the ASD website at www.asdk12.org/PEAKS.

Parents can also help by ensuring their children are well rested, eat a nutritious breakfast, and are at school on time for the days of testing. Please avoid scheduling appointments on your child’s testing days.

March 26th through April 6  – All testing begins at 8:30 am.
