Ponytail? What a Pony Tale?













Cook outs = End of the Year!

We finish the school year with a picnic on the last day. We had a nice day for it:





















































At the End of each year the site administrators all
travel to Unalakleet for the purpose of closing out the year. We turn in reports and visit with each department at the District Office.


A cook out gave us the opportunity to visit with each other and say goodbye for the summer. Although the afternoon was very gray and cool folks had a good time.




Each year there are also a few that decide to leave - happy trails!
Here is Joe Braach - the Shishmaref principal and a long time BSSD'er. He will be missed!







Ben Howard, the Unalakleet principal with Supt. Hickerson in the background.



Greg Johnson, a previous Shishmaref principal - impervious to the chill in the air - visits with Joe!

late fall construction + spring run-off = muck...

The new housing units did not have water and sewer put in until late October. Of course by that time it was "too late" to do any ground work.


Some folks even said they were all done. Looking at what we have now - I certainly hope not.

So, tonight we hauled two loads of gravel and rock to try and make it a bit more enjoyable until the grounds can be finished this summer!
