Dear Steller Community,

The Steller Auction is the single fundraiser for the school and all money raised supports Steller Secondary’s unique educational approach and commitment to foster the creation of independent, courageous people capable of dealing with the shifting complexities of the modern world. We all see how powerful this approach is in the growth of our own students.

We have planned an exciting night to help build community and raise money for the school.

We would also like to extend our thanks to all the members of the community that have generously donated to the auction. Without your generosity this event wouldn’t be possible.

Spring Break On-Stage at Perseverance Theatre

Greetings ASD Schools,

I write to you with an invitation from Perseverance Theatre — Alaska’s flagship regional theatre, based in Juneau and Anchorage. Perseverance is recruiting campers for our annual…

For students Ages 10-18. The camp will take place during Spring Break [Monday March 11 - Friday March 15 from 10am to 5pm with extended hours on Friday].

Participants can look forward to creating their very own works of theatre completely from scratch! Students will write, workshop, cast, design, and direct original, brand-new, world-premiere short plays culminating in a public performance on the final day of camp. Students will dive headfirst into the stage production process, crafting theatre from the ground up beneath the guidance of an industry professional and nationally certified theatre educator.

Attached you’ll find a camp flyer, an info packet, and a scholarship application in addition to ASD permission to post. Visit https://www.ptalaska.org/springbreakcamp/ to register online. Please forward this invitation to any prospective campers and families.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have.

Many thanks for your time and consideration,
