Attention AISD Families & Staff:
The AISD School Board has approved the newest guidelines for Covid-19, which includes alignment with MIC Alert Levels and mask usage. Beginning Monday 4/11, masks will be optional for all students and staff in Alert Level 1!
#aisd #aisdproud #covid #metlakatla #alaska #education



Attention AISD Families:
Starting Monday 4/11, we will begin implementing the revised Covid Safety and Mitigation Plan! We are dialing back some of our strategies as our vaccination rate is high and our cases are low.
These changes include:
1. There will be no temperature screenings for staff and students (if you or students are sick, please stay home.)
2. Staff will not be required to be screened for Covid-19 symptoms and sign in each day
3. We will not be logging names for students who ride the bus
4. Outside groups will be able to use District's facilities following District's guidelines and permission
5. Test-to-Stay will allow students and staff who are not fully vaccinated and who have been in close contact at school, to test daily and avoid quarantine. This does not include close contact within the same household.
(Learn more about AISD's Test-to-Stay here: https://5il.co/18h4h)
*Please note that future outbreaks may require us to revisit these measures.
Changes are happening quickly so stay tuned for more updates!

Alicia just finished this incredible mask in Native Arts! Titled "Gertie," she began carving it in October and it features an abalone inlay. She finished painting it and last minute decided to add some beautiful designs to the hair. What a stunning piece, Alicia! Great work!
