How Steller Parent Group Communicates with You

September 2024

Dear Steller Community, 

The mission of the Steller Parent Group is to promote involvement in school activities, to solicit address, and make recommendations regarding issues and policies facing the Steller Community, and to support fundraising activities and facilitate the disbursement of those funds.

Steller Parent Group wants to make sure that we are reaching as many members of our community with up to date and relevant information as possible.  We have three ways we communicate with you:

Website/Steller Flash updates appear on the SPG website, or parents, students and staff can SUBSCRIBE to receive updates directly in your inbox.  Please refer to the Steller Parent Group Website for anything pertaining for SPG – including Meeting Dates, Agendas, and Minutes, ByLaws, Volunteer Opportunities, and the Student Showcase where students can share their accomplishments.
  1. Steller Secondary Parent Group is a closed Facebook Group created to promote communication between current parents, teachers, and staff for organizing school activities, announcements, questions, and keeping up with everything that is going on. Feel free to jump in with questions or posts sharing things that might be of interest to our community.
  1. Steller Secondary Page is an open page visible to the public. If you are a Steller Alumni and want to stay informed about special activities, fundraisers and student highlights we encourage you to follow our page.

Steller Community at it’s Best!

The 2024 Steller BBQ on Tuesday was a stellar success! 

Certainly our biggest BBQ in the last six years, we think we had about 550 staff, students and their families in attendance. The weather cooperated and it was great to be able to spread out in the field. It was wonderful seeing old friends reconnect, and new friendships started! 

Of course an event like this wouldn’t be possible without a whole slew of volunteers working behind the scenes. This year we had about 30 adult volunteers and a great group of 10 students helping to make everything run smoothly in the Steller tradition.

Thank you to everyone!

If you want to know more about Steller Parent Group and help us plan more community events like this please reach out!
