Friday Fireweed Fact! Our class sizes stay small - we have a maximum of only 18 per class for K-2nd, and 20 for 3rd-6th grades! This won't change based on budget fluctuations from the state or borough, which leads to consistency, stability, and feeling connected with your teachers and the parents in your student's class

What an incredible core memory for these 6th graders who are launching into middle school! This 3 day camping trip in tents at the head of Tutka was just a perfect trip with fishing, SUPing, tidepooling, campfire songs (my favorite was Bugs), and more s'mores than I can count. Kind hearts, curious minds, and kids getting to experience the beauty in this place that we call home(r). Love this tradition! It was made possible in a huge way through a grant awarded by the Prince William Sound Regional Citizens' Advisory Council - thank you for supporting our students!

Even though our socials have been quiet, Fireweeders have been very busy learning, playing, getting outside, and celebrating during this last month of school! We'll be catching up on posting all the fun over the next few days, and I hope I'll see you at the BBQ today!

Our annual May Day celebration was beyond words! This tradition kicks off such a packed and fun month of festivities and celebrates the spring that is working hard to break free of winter’s grasp this year.
