Welcome
Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year. We are very excited to start school on August 17th. While we face a national teacher shortage, including here in Hoonah, please know that the staff of Hoonah City School are committed to providing a quality education to every student. Our key word will be “versatility”. Keep in mind, it will look different this year as we navigate a schedule and class options with fewer staff members. We are thinking creatively and designing innovative strategies. Every staff member will be working with students in some capacity. We ask for your support and to not judge to quickly. If you have a concern, please contact us. We have an open-door policy and welcome your thoughts and ideas. We will be recruiting parents and community members to serve on various committees to share input on their vision for our students’ and school. The strategic plan will be finished this year and it will guide us over the next five years. Plan to support us by participating on a committee. Again, welcome to the 2022-2023 school year. Let the learning, innovation and fun begin!
