Here is a valuable TIP for using URL's on this page - start by noticing the address. "ORG" means that the site is maintained by a non-profit organization. "EDU" means that the site is maintained by an educational insitution, and "COM" means that the site is maintained by a business.

Because of the nature of the World Wide Web, change is constant. Web sites change addresses and disappear frequently. Every effort will be made to update this web page to keep current with these changes. If you find an address that is not updated at the Web site, please feel free to e-mail the author. These links have been judged by the web page author to be valuable for our elementary school. However, due to the changable nature of the Internet and the World Wide Web, the author and the Anchorage School District cannot be responsible for the contents of individual sites provided by this list.
