The District is happy to announce the hire of Ms. Mary Fundeen and Ms. Diane Seitz to fill our final two elementary positions. Ms. Fundeen is a graduate of Bristol Bay and someone who just completed her student teaching experience in our school. Ms. Seitz has many years of teaching experience, most recently in Chevak, Alaska. We are very excited that both women chose Bristol Bay as their next step.
Please help all of us welcome our new teachers! We know the new year will be very exciting for all.
Student Council
The Student Council has been meeting regularly this year and taking a very active role in our school. Officers and representatives from all high school grades have helped pull together Pep Assemblies, a Principal Recognition Day event, and the annual Christmas Party for high school students. Student Council representatives attended the Fall AASG (Alaska Association of Student Governments) Conference in Palmer, and they came back to host an assembly to support AASG's efforts to 'Ban the 'R' Word. This is an effort in conjunction with Special Olympics Alaska to bring awareness and sensitivity to support people with disabilities in our schools and communities.

We are also thankful for the Student Representative to our School Board. Anna brings a perspective to the Board that our administration and Board needs to hear and she advocates on behalf of all students k-12 to make sure they have a voice in these important meetings.
