A Message From Our Superintendent

Notice

Anchorage School District recently issued the following announcement.

Dear ASD Community,

Before you head off for your much deserved spring break, please take a few moments to read through the many great things taking place in our classrooms and some important items you’ll want to pay attention to when you return.

First, our prayers and hopes continue for a peaceful end to the war in Ukraine. ASD has students, staff, family, and friends deeply impacted by the death, devastation, and destruction. Please read in this newsletter about the sunflower and the symbol it has become during this time.

The Municipality of Anchorage’s Division of Elections has assigned the 2022 School Bond as Proposition 1 on the ballot. Proposition 1 includes projects at 25 schools, and if passed, the District will not pursue a bond next year.

Last month, the Anchorage School Board approved the District’s Preliminary Budget for the 2022-23 school year. The budget maintains class size, focuses on safety, and meets Board goals—which all support students in achieving academic growth.

We are less than 10 weeks away from the end of the school year. Fourth quarter is packed full of events to wrap up the school year and deadlines to note as you help your student prepare for their educational goals for next school year.

Have a safe and wonderful break, and Happy Iditarod and Fur Rondy!

Sincerely,

Deena M. Bishop, Ed.D.

Superintendent
