Coming Your Way In

 10 DAYS

 The theme this year is Creative Exploration, so let’s raise some money to support our students on their expeditions!  The staff and students have been very busy coming up with auction items that are examples of how very creative they are.  Please donate your items or time, and then come to the auction to bid! 

 The doors open at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 30.  Bidding starts at 6:30. 

Please contact Janine Nesheim at 250-5467 or nesheims@gci.net if you would like to volunteer or have questions about donations.

The Steller Advisory Board will NOT be meeting tonight. There are no new agenda items for the Advisory Board to consider at this time. We appreciate your involvement when we do convene so please mark your calendar for the February 18th meeting and we’ll see you then. Thank you.

There is one more week to sign up for the Alyeska Discover program. The deadline without a late fee is January 24. Join Jason as he leads a group of students to Alyeska on Feb 6, 13, and 20th. The program is for riders of all levels. With their registration, students get transportation, lessons and rentals (if needed), and a lift ticket. The conditions at Alyeska have been great so far this year, and we are looking for that to continue. Get out of the house for three weekends in February and enjoy what Alaska has to offer. Go to alyeskaresort.com to register. Search for the Discover Program. Please contact Jason if you have any questions at collins_jason@asdk12.org.
