Our food drive for the Christmas Kindness program was a huge success! Congratulations to Ms. Baktuit's class for winning the classroom competition! We would also like to recognize Mrs. Troy's class for the most hams, and Ms. Baktuit's, Mrs. Stevenson's, and Mrs. Shaw's classes for the most turkeys!

On behalf of the recipient families of our Soldotna Elementary Christmas Kindness program, we would like to express our sincere appreciation to the following community contributors for their generosity: AK Crazy Collectors, The Lions Club, and the Soldotna Elementary Parent Pack . We would also like to thank our many individual contributors (parents, staff & community members). Your generosity has allowed these families to enjoy the true spirit of the Christmas Season.

Thank you Vince at Redline Sports for your generous donation of ice skates! The children look forward to ice skating on our ice rink thanks to you!

We're in the thick of winter flu and respiratory illness season. Influenza A has been especially prevalent within our community these past few weeks. Please help us keep our students, staff and teachers as healthy as possible by keeping your child home if you suspect they might be getting sick. If your child is vomiting or has a fever, school district policy requires they remain home until

24-hours fever/vomiting free (without help from medication). Thank you for helping us all take care of each other's health and wellbeing!

Students go out to recess every day rain, shine, or snow. Please make sure that your child is properly dressed for the weather. Also, please mark your child's gear with their name!
