Get Ready for the 20-21 School Year
Have you...
- Signed your online Enroll App in Brightways?
- Filled out the enrollment forms packet for 20-21?
- Met with your advisory teacher to build your ILPs?
- Submitted purchase order requests for items you want Raven to order for you?
Reminder: Student funding becomes available starting July 1 for processing orders and reimbursements once a student has been activated for the 20-21 school year.
- What needs to happen for a student to be activated?
- all enrollment forms completed/signed
- ILP approved/signed
- How can I check my student's status to see if they have been activated?
- Log in to Brightways and look at your Parent Dashboard. Each student's status will show next to the school year - complete, active, pending, etc.
- Or, call or email your advisory teacher so they can check for you and let you know if there is anything missing for activation.

Welcome Our New Advisory Teacher, Tracy Gunkel
Hello Raven Friends,
My name is Tracy Gunkel, a wife to a wonderful husband, a mother to three fabulous children, a mother-in-law, and to top it off, a grandmother. Among teaching, my hobbies are walking/hiking with my family, gardening, and spending time in the much desired Alaska sunshine. I have been teaching and working on Prince of Wales Island for nine years. Prior to moving to Alaska, I had the privilege of homeschooling my older children from their early elementary years through high school. Homeschooling has been a passion of mine that has persisted through my public education experience. I look forward to joining the Raven team and will strive to learn and meet the needs of you and your family!
~ Thursday, July 9 ~
~ Friday, July 10 ~
