November Steller Parent Group Meeting
We made it!
It’s been lots of hard work, and very challenging, but we all made it through the first quarter of online learning! Congratulations to students, staff and families on a job well done, and we wish everyone great success for the next quarter.
Steller Instagram Account
Dear Steller Families, Students and Staff,
We are happy to announce the creation of the official Steller Instagram Account @steller_s_official. All students, staff and families are encouraged to follow!
This account was created with the goal of connecting the Steller Community, especially during this time of distance. You will find information and photos related to the Steller community and events. It will also serve as a way to collect pictures for the Yearbook until we are back in person.
The account is run through OpGroup in a newly created Cabinet Position of Social Media Liaison – currently Eli P. a senior.
Only students with a signed District Media Consent Form will be included in Instagram posts. If you are not sure of your permission status please check with the office. Parents/Guardians may also write directly to Reed to inform him if they don’t want their student’s image to be included in any Instagram posts.
You don’t need an Instagram Account to follow, and can see the feed at the Steller Parent Group Website.
To submit photos, announcements or questions please email opgsml@gmail.com. All submissions require first and last name and grade of everyone in the photo. Only first name and last initial will be used in the posts.
For any questions please email Eli at opgsml@gmail.com
We are looking forward to having some fun on this account and hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
Eli Pelletier
OpGroup Social Media Liaison
