Attention RJES Families: Due to the delayed start of the elementary school tomorrow, Wednesday, Sept 20th, the Elementary Bus Run will be delayed by one (1) hour, starting at 8:10am. Please add one hour to the normal pick up times. This delayed start is to allow the elementary staff to debrief today's evacuation and coordinate messaging to students before they arrive. Please do not drop off students before 8:30am at the elementary school. The High School and Middle School bus runs will NOT change and will start at 7:30am. School will start at the High School and Middle School as normal at 8:40am. Thank you! #aisd #aisdproud #metlakatla #alaska #education #schoolschedule

A few months ago, we posted a letter from our RJES Space Club looking for donations towards purchasing a telescope. We are happy to announce that we received enough funding to purchase an amazing telescope for our young scientists! We are so excited to be able to use this with our Space Club students, who are in the process of giving the telescope a Sm'algyax name! 🔭 A special thank you to all of our donors, including Sealaska Heritage Institute, for making this possible! #richardjohnsonelementary #metlakatla #alaska #spaceclub #rjes #students #sealaskaheritageinstitute #science #exploration
