Quyana, ConocoPhillips!

In October of this school year, our school had a visit from a longtime friend of mine, Deborah. She spent a week volunteering in the classroom assisting with reading groups, supporting writing assignments, and preparing materials for our after school activities program.

Deborah also sent a tube of toothpaste out for each of our kiddos, as brushing their teeth is part of the daily routine out here in the 4th grade classroom.

This week, on behalf of her employer, ConocoPhillips, our classroom was awarded a $500 grant and a classroom set of Arctic Animals coloring books and crayons!

Thank you, Deborah, for your volunteer hours here in Chevak! And, thank you, ConocoPhillips, for this generous award! The class of 2021 is excited to bring some new materials into the classroom to include science activities and great books to add to our classroom treasure chest!

Each year we have been blessed with someone partnering with our students in order to enhance and enrich their educational experience-- these things do not go unnoticed, and provide more for our children than you will probably get to see. As their teacher, I thank you all!

If you are interested in partnering with our class, please contact me. Quyana!
