If you are interested in volunteering to judge, please click on the link below to fill out the judging interest form:

We will be having a judge & volunteer training on Thursday, December 11th at 6:00 pm in Ms. Pike's classroom at the elementary school. All judges need to attend this training, as there are some changes from previous years.
If you have any questions, please contact Chaya Pike (cpike@aisdk12.org) or Owen Fulton (ofulton@aisdk12.org). Thank you for helping us host a fantastic meet!

For example: 1 pepperoni and 1 sausage and 2 cups of cheese equals 1PSC2 (Representing a whole pizza and a balanced equation)!
The students made the dough from scratch, and put on their own toppings. Thank you to AISD Food Services for allowing us to use their ovens, and to Mr. Weller for the fun (and delicious) lesson! Luk'wil aam dzapsm, everyone!

What would you like to share about your time at Annette Island School District?
High school was great when I attended. What made it great the most was I had siblings in each grade til I graduated in 2010 and the staff was absolutely amazing.

I achieved a lot of things leading up to my current job. Mainly being supported by my family and close friends. I’ve also learned about CPR and many other courses that will help in everyday life.

All of them! Mr. Weber, Mrs. Fuerst, Mr Walker, Ms. Smiley, just to name a few.

Go to college! Lots in life, and college is something I wish I did. I would have had better chances in life. I’m content right now but college is a must when you graduate. Get out while you’re young.
