Wow! What a week!
Hello Crawford families,
Wow! This was a crazy start to the New Year.
We were so happy that our parking lots and drop off lanes were clear for students to return to school on the 4th of January. The contractor did an excellent job of clearing snow and ice so that we could safely enter and exit the parking lots. This looked a bit dicey last Sunday afternoon, but they did a great job making it happen on Sunday night.
On Wednesday we were able to host our Ben Eielson Junior/Senior High students as they had to evacuate their buildings. The staff and students did an excellent job and we appreciate the patience of all as we navigated reunification at 40 below.
Thursday's gate difficulties created a challenge at school and we are SOOO grateful to the limited staff that were present to help navigate that situation and supervise students. Mrs. Henry, our Librarian, was assisted by Mrs. Fleming, from Nutrition Services, Mrs. Jones, Fourth grade teacher, Mrs. Ellis, Third grade teacher, Mrs. St. Aubyn, substitute teacher. They were able to supervise the students in common areas until teachers and other staff were able to arrive. A great big thank you to them all!
As a result of this less than optimal start to the new semester, Heather Campbell, a Crawford parent, arranged for a catered breakfast for all three of the base schools. She delivered them to a very grateful staff before school. I cannot tell you how touched the staff was by the gesture and the kindness this act conveyed. We thank the Eielson Families for their thoughtfulness and support of our school communities. We appreciate you right back!
Below you will find information about the School Efficiency Task Force Survey and the upcoming School Board Agenda for the work session on Monday. Please take a few moments to click on the links and review the information in the agenda as it may be very impactful to our school and base community.
Also below we have the winners from the Winter Break Bingo game! Scroll down to see the names and thanks to everyone (all 41) who played!
Have a wonderful Sunday evening and a great week!
