We are in the last week of regular classes for this semester and intensives are starting next Monday. It is exciting to have two weeks of fun before the start of winter break and I hope the excitement will carry over to fun activities over the break.

MAP testing – some students will be doing the MAP assessment Friday December 6^th during registration.The staff at Steller chose registration day for the testing to minimize impact on instruction. Students have received a note and testing time is 10:30. The testing is mandated and students who don’t participate Friday will be pulled out for testing during intensives. The test typically takes 45 – 90 minutes. I will also let students take the test prior to Friday needed. If you have a child in grades 7, 8 or 9, please ask them if they received a note about testing Friday.

PSAT scores are arriving soon and I will post a note in the hallway and let advisors know when they arrive. Students can also log in to their College Board account and some may receive and email or a text that their scores are available. I recommend that students look at areas of weakness and strength and prepare accordingly for the SAT.

Hello Steller Community,

Next week at Ted Stevens International Airport (North Terminal), Alaska Regional Hospital, the Airport Police and Fire are working together to provide free hands-only CPR training classes! According to the American Heart Association, the vast majority of cardiac arrests occur outside of the hospital. 70% occur at home and nearly 20% occur in public places like an airport or sporting facility. Administering immediate CPR can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival. The life you save is likely to be someone close to you! Take a Moment…Save a Life

Police will instruct you in the easy process:

An Important piece of Information:  MAP testing (by invitation only) will also be on December 6, 2019, from 10:30 until 1:00.  The test will be administered in Ken’s room. This should not conflict with registration, but if you are in the building, please remember!!

If you have any questions, please see Tami.  Thanks!

PS.  And for the 7th graders, it is never as complicated or stressful as it sounds 🙂
