What a fun and busy week at ANCCS! Our students were learning, growing, creating, and connecting all week long. 💙
Harvesting with Mr. Wayne
Our students got their hands in the dirt and spent time harvesting potatoes with Mr. Wayne! A great opportunity to learn through hands-on experiences.
Building Community in 5th Grade
Our 5th graders kicked off the year by working through team challenges designed to build trust, communication, and a strong classroom community. They also began lessons centered around their grade-level cultural focus: Iñupiaq culture. We’re excited to see how their learning grows throughout the year!
Middle School Novel Study
Our middle school students jumped right into their first novel study of the year! We’re excited to see where their reading and discussions take them.
Welcome, Kindergarten!
Wednesday was a big day as we welcomed our Kindergarten students to ANCCS! We are so happy to have our youngest learners officially join us.
Berry Picking at Arctic Valley
We wrapped up the week with a beautiful berry-picking trip to Arctic Valley. Time outside, time together, and plenty of berries made for a pretty great Friday!
And while we were away…
The ANSEP students stopped by and surprised us with the most beautiful and creative chalk art! What a fun welcome back and what a great way to brighten our entrance and make us smile as we came into the building.
A great week of learning, culture, community, and connection at ANCCS! 💙
