Dear Steller Families,<\/p>\n

SPG would like to ensure parents are informed about the possibility of a student walk-out to advocate for raising ASD’s Base Student Allocation (BSA).<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Friday, April 11 at 1 PM some students at the eight high schools in Anchorage are organizing a “walk out” event. They will be wearing “Red for ED” and walking out of classes to raise awareness about the need to raise the BSA to increase funding for our schools. <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Some Steller students may opt to walk out. SPG has been informed that no disciplinary action will be taken if they do so. However…<\/div>\n
1) they will be responsible for make-up work<\/div>\n
2) they should check out at the office before leaving the building<\/div>\n
3) they should coordinate an afternoon plan with their parents<\/div>\n
4) their attendance will show up as an unexcused absence.<\/div>\n
Classes will continue as usual for students who choose to remain in class.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
As this is a student-organized event, SPG has limited information. However, there is detailed information about the need for additional educational funding and how to contact your legislators at the Great Alaska Schools website<\/a>. See also the “Action Items” tab of their website. <\/b><\/div>\n

Steller will be losing 3.9 teachers if additional funding is not passed, and class sizes will increase.<\/b> <\/h3>\n
We encourage families to talk with their students about it if they have questions or concerns about the walkout event.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
