Steller Students Thank Firefighters on 9/11
Steller 10th grader, Riley B., planned and coordinated anappreciation for Anchorage Firefighters on September 11th.  Riley drew and stenciled large “poster” cards for each fire station and had all Steller students sign the cards during advisory to show thanks for the firefighters’ dedication and hard work.  He and other Steller students then delivered the cards to each fire station on September 11th.  The following students were instrumental in making this project a success: Eli M., T.J. J., Mackenzie C., Lindsay L.,  Liam J.,Emily G., Lauren H., Lorryn W., and Madeline M.
Riley said, “To all the students who signed my posters I would like to let you know that all the firemen really appreciated the thank you posters. So, my thanks goes to the Steller Community.”
