Back to School!

Waqaa ANCCS families!

We look forward to welcoming our ANCCS Eagles in grades 1-8 for their first day of school next week! All students in grades 1 through 8 will begin school on Thursday, August 15. Drop-off begins at 8:15 am for breakfast. Please ensure your student is here by 8:45 am for our Yuuyaraq Gathering. 

Join us on Tuesday, August 13, from 5:15-6:30 pm for our Ice Cream Social. This will be an opportunity to meet your child's teacher and gather information for the school year. You also will learn more about our upcoming blueberry field trip, special programs including Illitchuk and Alaska Strong, and have the opportunity to become an ANCCS volunteer or chaperone. 

With school starting next week, now is a great time to start easing your child back into a consistent sleep and wake-up routine. Adequate and consistent sleep is crucial for children's overall health, academic performance, and emotional well-being. If your child has been on a summer sleep schedule, now is a good time to start adjusting their bedtime and wake-up time by 10-15 minutes each night to prepare them for the school day schedule. 

For more back-to-school information, please see our summer newsletter.
