Copper River School District -

Students in Mrs. Browns Biology class explored the difference in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells with a fun food lab. Students made bread with yeast, a ginger bug (which will make ginger ale), and sauerkraut. Both the ginger bug and the sauerkraut are fermented foods which preserves food and increases the longevity of the food. Students will monitor the activity of the fermented foods for signs of life. Students also looked at fermented liquids under microscopes to see the yeast cells in action and smelled what good ferments and bad ferments smell like as well as examine the effect of good and bad bacteria.

I am writing to let you know that today I tested positive for Covid-19. According to my doctor, if you were within 6 ft of me for more than 15 minutes at any time since last Friday, August 20th, get tested if you are showing any symptoms, if no symptoms you should test on days five and seven from the first exposure. I was not with any child for more than a few minutes today. I will be cleared to re-enter the building on Sept. 2nd. This is not the way I wanted to start the school year but it is what it is. I encourage all families to remain vigilant and practice safety Covid precautions. If you have any questions or concerns about exposure, please talk with your doctor. Take care and stay healthy. I'll see you soon! Sincerely, Ms. Jackson

MANDATORY PARENT MEETING from Coach Purcell: WHEN: Monday, August 30th @ 5pm WHERE: Glennallen High School Commons Hello, potential CRSD volleyball players! The time has come to get our season rolling. We will be having a MANDATORY parent meeting on Monday, August 30 at 5 pm in the Glennallen Commons. At this meeting we will discuss the season schedule, sign pertinent paperwork (ahh...the fun part), hear about the team expectations, meet each other, and answer as many questions as possible. All students MUST fill out the required info found at registration on planeths.com. In addition, students MUST have a completed school physical on file with the school PRIOR to their first day of practice. Athletes will NOT be allowed to practice without BOTH of these being completed. BTW: Our first day of practice will be WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, from 5:30-7pm in the Glennallen gym. I'm sure there will be lots of details to come and many things that I will need help with, as this is my first year coaching high school for the district. Let's help each other have a great year! I'll see you on Monday. Feel free to email me anytime with questions, comments, concerns, and applause! 🙃 Coach Cheralea Purcell EM: cpurcell@crsd.us
