Student Voices Matter. Angoon was selected by the CDC as a community where they want to hear from our high school students. The Youth Risk Behavior Survey isn't just about data, it's about ensuring that resources are guided by student experiences not assumptions. When students share their voices they help create a healthier future. We must have parents' permission for our high schoolers to participate in the YRBS. Please go to https://forms.gle/eeuMD9vqcbwSRSBJ8 to sign the permission form.

Dear Staff, Students, and Families,
Warm Greetings and Happy Holidays! As we approach the end of another eventful year, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your unwavering support, dedication, and commitment to our school community. It is through the collective efforts of our exceptional staff, talented students, and supportive families that we have achieved incredible milestones together.
The holiday season is a time for reflection, gratitude, and spreading joy. It is a time to cherish the moments spent with loved ones, celebrate our achievements, and look ahead to the opportunities that the coming year holds. As we embrace this festive season, I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to each and every one of you for your invaluable contributions to our school's success.
In the upcoming year, our focus remains steadfast on providing a quality education for all students. We believe that every child deserves access to an education that nurtures their talents, cultivates their potential, and prepares them for a bright future. Our dedicated educators will continue to employ innovative teaching methods, create inclusive learning environments, and foster a love for lifelong learning among our students.
One of our key objectives for the next year is to increase attendance rates. Regular attendance is vital for academic progress and personal growth. We will work collaboratively with families, students, and community partners to implement strategies that promote consistent attendance and address any barriers that may hinder students from being present in the classroom. By fostering a culture of punctuality and emphasizing the importance of being present, we can enhance the learning experience for all.
Additionally, we are committed to raising achievement scores across all grade levels. Our talented and passionate teaching staff will continue to implement research-based instructional practices, personalized learning approaches, and targeted interventions to ensure that every student receives the support they need to succeed academically. We will closely monitor student progress, provide timely feedback, and offer additional resources to help them reach their full potential.
Furthermore, we aim to increase enrollment and welcome more students into our educational community. We firmly believe that diversity enriches the learning experience and fosters a vibrant and inclusive school environment. By actively engaging with prospective families, partnering with community organizations, and showcasing the unique opportunities our school offers, we can attract a diverse range of students and create a stronger, more vibrant community.
As we embark on this exciting journey together, I want to assure you that your voices, concerns, and aspirations are valued. We are committed to promoting open lines of communication, strengthening partnerships with families, and creating opportunities for meaningful engagement. Together, we can shape the future of our school and empower our students to become responsible global citizens.
In closing, I would like to express my sincerest appreciation for your unwavering support and dedication. May this holiday season bring you joy, peace, and an abundance of cherished moments with your loved ones. Let us enter the new year with renewed enthusiasm, a shared vision, and an unwavering commitment to providing a quality education for all.
Happy holidays and warm wishes for a prosperous New Year!
Sincerely,
Superintendent
Ralph Watkins
