Music Night at Thorne Bay School
Students and school board members recently traveled to Juneau on February 8-13, for leadership training and meetings with Alaska legislators to advocate for public education and SISD.
They addressed concerns such as the shortage of teaching staff, inconsistent mental health services, lack of maintenance funds for school facilities, aging vehicles, and funding for student activities.
The students represented SISD positively, emphasizing the need for increased funding and investment in our youth.
Special thanks to school board members Debbie Fehr, Tony Lovell, and parent chaperone Stephanie Hamby for taking their time out of their very busy schedules.
Additionally, thanks to Representative Rebecca Himschoot and Representative Dan Ortiz for their support for public education and for meeting and listening to our student's concerns.
Gratitude to SISD students Austin Keys, Tia and Megan Christopherson, Anagail Hamby, Nash Lovell, Teagan Taylor, and Bonnie Campbell for their advocacy—truly our future leaders.

SISD has deployed a new Gym camera system that will live stream any sports games we play in the gym. There are buttons on both the District website and the Thorne Bay School website that say Live Games. The link that it will take you to is https://fan.hudl.com/sisdtnb
Sports Fans,
We have had another change to the basketball schedule on January 26-27 games with Kake. The game on Friday, Jan 26th, will start at 3:00 pm, and on Saturday, the 27th, the tipoff will be at 2:00 pm. This change is due to a basketball officials' shortage on POW and is made to accommodate other games on those evenings.
Please share this schedule change with others.
See the attached basketball schedule.
Warm Regards,
Rod Morrison
Due to bad weather, Gustavus will not arrive at POW until Sunday night. Therefore, we will be rescheduling the Sunday game to a later time.
Monday's game with Gustavus at 6:00 pm is still on the schedule.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Warm regards,
Rod Morrison
Superintendent
