Just wanted to share a few photos from our rafting and OEC Fire Ecology hike. Thanks to all of you for making the trip possible and a huge success. A special thanks to the parent chaperones; Mrs. Fann, Mr. Mickelson, Mrs. Kirsch, Mrs. Anthony, Mrs. Allen, and Mr. Nelson.

Off and running we are! Just wanted to update everyone a little bit. Students have been great these first few weeks, working hard through assessments and new schedules (we have recess before lunch this year).

Remember school photos on Friday!

Our first field trip is next week. Our class will leave Tuesday morning to raft the upper Kenai River. Afterwards we will drive to the KNWR OEC, out Swanson River Road. We encourage families to come join us for dinner Tuesday evening. Early the next morning we will pack up and meet ranger Michelle at Hidden Lake for a fire ecology field trip which includes hiking down Hidden Creek Trail to Skilak Lake through an old burn. We will return to school Wednesday afternoon.
