Student in graduation cap and gown and a white dress, Senior Highlight Mercedes Leask.  "My plan for next year is to attend Montana State University in Bozeman for Nursing.  I would like to thank my parents, my Grandpa David and Gram Punky for always supporting me.  I would also liek to thank the many other people who have helped influence who I am today.

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! #aisd #aisdproud #covid #metlakatla #alaska #education #covid19

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!

Senior Highlight: Allison Booth! "My favorite part of high school was a trip to Spokane for a basketball tournament, and getting to see Gonzaga in person. Also when I was able to go to a basketball camp at Gonzaga, and getting to stay in the dorms. If I could go back in time, I wish that I played basketball my junior year. I am going to attend Fort Lewis College in Durango, CO. I want to get an associate's degree and plan on going into dental hygiene. I would like to thank my sister Amber for pushing me to do well. I would also like to thank my dad Marty for always believing in me and making me do my best. I want to thank my mom for loving me unconditionally. I also want to thank Chelsea Martinez for helping me along the way, and pushing me to do things outside of my comfort zone." Congratulations! #mhs #metlakatlahighschool #senior #classof2022 #aisd #aisdproud #metlakatla #alaska #education #collegebound
