Brandy and our dedicated Greenhouse team have been busy getting everything ready. We’re excited for the many plant sales coming up this year—stay tuned for more details!
We will have a sign up sheet going around for those interested and available to help with planting seeds, transplanting plugs into four inch pots and hanging baskets, and helping keep our investments watered for the plant sales next month!
Winter Sowing Classes for planting seeds into milk jugs sign up for March 4-14th available!
Spring lettuce has been planted and will be available again in about four weeks to the cafeterias, food banks, and businesses.

Parent & Community Meeting Update
Due to the home basketball game against Skagway at 6:00 PM, I will be available to meet with parents, students, and community members at 5:00 PM instead of our originally scheduled meeting time.
For those families that have already made plans to come to the meeting at 5:30 PM I do not anticipate the meeting running over an hour, but I will remain in the Thorne Bay commons until 6:30 PM to ensure all questions and concerns can be addressed.
Date: February 6, 2025
🕠 Time: 5:00 PM – 6:30 PM
📍 Location: Thorne Bay School Commons

Due to the heavy snow and slick roads, all schools will have a late start at 10:00 AM today. Buses will run 1.5 hours later than their usual scheduled times. This adjustment should provide some additional time for the road crews to improve conditions.
Staff, please report to your workstations by 9:30 AM. The safety of our students and staff is our utmost priority.
Parents, if you choose to keep your students home for the day, please notify your school.
Stay safe,
