Parent Group needs a Treasurer!

Dabble with numbers and looking for a way to volunteer next year? Steller Parent Group needs a treasurer starting Fall of 2019. This is an easy roll to fill and is very flexible with your schedule. All accounting is done with Quickbooks Online and is easy to access on whatever computer you have available. Except for checks and reports, the entire job is paperless. This role encourages regular attendance to the monthly meetings (2nd Tuesday of each month), generating financial reports, and printing checks. The role is also important during the yearly auction, where you will assist in setting up the payment system. Previous experience is not required but may be helpful to understand lite accounting as well as understand quickbooks. Help is available now and through the summer, so you won’t be left in the dark. Got a question or possibly interested? The Parent Group really needs you. Reach out to the current treasurer Kevin Hedin kevin@kevinhedin.com

Next Year’s Barcelona and Paris Travel Intensive Informational Parent Meeting: Tuesday May 7th at 6PM

Parents: Please come find out about the Barcelona and Paris trip that will be happening during May’s Intensive. This is an eleven day trip focused on the art and culture of these two amazing cities. Students will be visiting museums and landmark sites, like the Eiffel Tower. The Intensive is being designed to allow students to participate in the culture, rather than just observe it. Students will take a French cooking class; create art using a form of choice (photography, drawing, painting, writing, etc.); and observe life in each city. Attached is the current flyer for the trip. It is being updated to show that the Versailles and Figueres day trips are included in the price, rather than showing up as optional. This will not change the price of the trip. Registration for the trip is open now, but there is lots of time to make the decision to attend. 
Please come on Tuesday to get your questions answered. If you can not make the meeting, send your questions to Troy at fast_troy@asdk12.org or Leigh Anne at bonney_leigh@asdk12.org. Students of all grades are able to join. 

CSI Camp

Here’s an opportunity for middle and high school students to be enriched in science this summer. The CSI Camp will be held at the State Crime Lab and delivered by law enforcement officials. It’s a hands on learning experience in a genuine crime investigative environment. See flyer and registration forms for both age groups.


Driver/Chaperone Needed – May 13-17, 2019

Brian’s intensive is looking for one additional driver/chaperone to accompany the group on our trip to Cordova, May 13-17. We will be taking a ferry from Whittier on Monday, May 13 and returning by ferry Friday, May 17. We will be spending 2 nights in a rustic cabin and 2 nights camping as we explore the Copper River area by bike. This chaperone would have the choice of biking or driving when we are exploring Cordova and (with your help) we will have room to bring a large heated tent and a cot so you can sleep comfortably! Thank you! Contact Brian at gehring_brian@asdk12.org
