Copper River School District -

Glennallen Schools: Hello All! If you missed the April virtual book fair here is a second chance! During this stressful time, Scholastic has worked hard to help bring books to communities. One way is through the online book fair. There is a large selection of books, mostly targeting the k-8th grade range, and shipping is FREE to your door on all book orders! Glennallen Elementary gets Scholastic dollars for every book you purchase through our fair, which is then used to purchase more books, which are then made accessible to your student! The fair is accessible NOW and runs through August! Promote literacy and reading in our community and check out the virtual book fair!

The Kenny Lake Staff will be parading to each bus stop on Thursday, May 21, to say good-bye to students and pass out a “picnic” lunch as well as 4th quarter awards. They will also collect work packets and chromebooks. If you will NOT be at your bus stop that day, please call the school office to make arrangements to have your chromebook picked up on Wednesday, May 20, or you can drop the device off at the school from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Waterford UPSTART is a new program in Alaska for four-year old children. This program is designed to prepare four-year old children for kindergarten. Each child receives a fun and individualized curriculum for either early reading, math and science (with an emphasis on early literacy) that is done 5 days a week, 15-20 minutes per day. In addition to the software, each family is provided with a laptop computer (which they'll get to keep if they meet the usage requirement) as well as Internet access if needed - all at no cost. We also pair each family with a coach to track and monitor the child's usage of the program, answer any technical or motivational questions, and support the family so that they can continue learning offline. The only requirement to participate is that the child be planning to start Kindergarten fall of 2021. Families that are interested can register by visiting www.waterfordupstart.org/register or by calling 1-888-982-9898.

GMS/GHS: As we prepare for the end of the school year, we strongly encourage all Glennallen middle school and high school parents to make arrangements to pick up their students' personal belongings from their lockers. Parents will be required to make contact with the GLennallen Jr/Sr High School office and make the appropriate arrangements with Ms. West to retrieve those items. The final day to retrieve these belongings is Friday May 22, 2020 by 3pm. Any items that are not retrieved by the deadline will remain at the school in a locked secured location over the summer. NO STUDENT or PARENT(S) will be allowed to pick up any items that are not retrieved by the set deadline. Items will then be available to students and parents on the first student contact day of 2020-2021 academic school year following summer vacation. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoy your summer, Mr. Williams.
