Major changes are coming to ASD and Steller in the 2024 school year:

• All ASD high schools are going to become Academies starting with the 2024 Freshman year. 
• All grade 6 students will be moved to middle school.
• New schedule changes will be implemented.

These changes have a direct impact on Steller’s future, and our community is being given an opportunity to make a recommendation to the board about what Steller wants to do.

In November we will be asked if we want to:

• Become a 6 to 12 school.
• Become a 9 to 12 school.
• Stay 7 to 12 school.
• Join the ASD Academy or if we want to do something different. 

It is important to be informed about these issues in order to make the best recommendations we can, in the interest of our current and future students.
