And we are so excited to be back! We would like to extend a very warm welcome to our new and returning families! If you have not yet completed and returned enrollment documents for your students, please do so as soon as possible. Don't forget to include their Birth Certificates and Immunization Records unless you already uploaded them when enrolling online with the district. KIBSD requires all students to be up to date on their immunizations in compliance with Alaska state laws. Our social calendar for September is already starting to fill up with all sorts of exciting activities but we are making sure to make time for fall assessments and screenings. Standardized assessments and screenings are how we evaluate where we stand as a school; areas where we excel and areas where we need to put in more effort and resources. Please consider having your student(s) participate.

ILP's are Due Friday September 20th

Students must be enrolled with AKTEACH by September 30th to be eligible for the allotment.

PSATs for 10th and 11th graders are October 29th

Fall testing windows are open. We are offering Benchmark Screening to grades K - 3 from September 9th - 20th and MAP Testing to grades 4 - 9 durring the week of the 23rd - the 27th. We encourage all of our students to participate. Reach out to Heidi for more information or to schedule your student(s).

Throughout the school year we will be hosting a variety of clubs and events and we want as many interested students as possible to attend. We always appreciate having an idea of how many families to expect for any given activity, but we NEVER want anyone to miss out on an opportunity because they forgot to let us know they were coming. Even though we will make sure to plan for a few extra kiddos in regards to any supplies, materials or accommodations it really does help us to be adequately prepared if you take the time to R.S.V.P. You can send us a message via the phone or by email or even by carrier pigeon. It is our desire to make sure that every student who participates in our activities has the best experience possible.

Whenever possible, flyers and information will be linked to the appropriate site. So, if you see a website address in a flyer that you want to visit, go ahead and try clicking on it. More than likely, it will take you there. Also, the calendar is a picture and should be able to be saved to your device and printed.
