Attending Steller Parent Group meetings is a great way to hear about what is happening at school directly from Reed and teachers, ask questions, and have your say in school decisions. It is also a good way to meet other parents – especially when we aren’t seeing each other in person. We are a friendly group and happy to see new faces!
Now is also the time to start thinking about next year’s committee. Our current treasurer Brandon Brooks will be stepping down, so we will need someone to fill his shoes. If you think you might be interested, or know someone who would be, please reach out. The more time we have to hand things off the easier it is!
We will also need a co-chair for next year. Co-chairs are usually two years, and the positions are staggered so that one person always has some experience. If you are interested in joining me for the rest of this year, or next year I’d be happy to talk.
You can always find Meeting Minutes and Agenda’s under the Parents Tab on the Website here.

For Seniors – February 20

Dear Steller Families,
As you know, Steller is a unique and special school where students thrive as they are inspired to become independent, confident, self-directed learners.
We would like to ask your help to spread the word about what a great school this is, and to encourage students to apply for the 2021-2022 school year via the ASD lottery system before the deadline on March 18.
Due to Covid restrictions we won’t be able to use our traditional ways of promoting Steller – the Ice Cream Social and school visits by our students.
We are excited to offer a fun and informational night via Zoom, led by students and staff. Interested students and their parents/guardians can join us at 6:00pm on Wednesday, February 17 OR Thursday, February 18.
They can also learn more about the school by visiting the main ASD website and the Steller Parent Group website.
Warm regards,
Kirsten Tschofen
Chair, Steller Parent Group

Steller Band Sends Two Students to Prestigious Honor Groups
More great news for Steller Community came out last night!
Steller band students, Xavier Libbrecht on bassoon ,and Kamryn Lyons on flute, have been accepted to the 2021 All-Northwest Honor Ensembles. Kamryn made the Wind Symphony, which is an honor band for small schools in the Pacific Northwest Region. Xavier even earned a chair in two honor ensembles: The Symphony Orchestra and Wind Symphony. This is his second time being accepted. T
he Symphony Orchestra auditions are open to all schools in the Pacific Northwest Region. The audition process for all of the All-Northwest Honor Ensembles is rigorous and competitive. “I am super duper delighted that Xavier and Kamryn made the All-Northwest”, said Mr. Toba, the band director, “attaining a spot is a pinnacle for high school students in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming. The hard work and dedication that Xavier and Kamryn have put paid a huge dividend. I just can not be more proud of these highly motivated students.” Because of the COVID pandemic, there will be no rehearsals or concerts for the All-Northwest Honor Ensembles. However, the students will still receive certificates.
Submitted by Mr Toba
Congratulations Kamryn and Xavier, the whole school is very proud of both of you!
Dear Steller,

All parents/guardians, students and staff are automatically part of the Steller Parent Group and welcome to attend meetings, share ideas and vote on decisions. This month in addition to regular updates from Reed, staff, and OpGroup we will be discussing a Social Club for grade 7 students, the plan for student recruitment for 2021-22 school year, and a proposal for gifts for Senior students. We are still accepting funding requests as well.

For SENIORS – February 20th
We at yearbook understand making senior pages are difficult, so we have extended the deadlines for:
Remember this is the last day since the yearbook needs to be submitted 9 days later so it is crucial we have everything either before the 20th or on the 20th.
Avoid disappointment and order Yearbook now!
Secondly, if you haven’t purchased one already yearbooks won’t be for sale much longer. We at yearbook recommend purchasing earlier rather then later. We have sold about 68% of our goal.
