Welcome to the Gilson Junior High!

Valdez, Alaska

News:

JH Basketball Practice begins September 15th at H.H. gym.

What is the ATB?

We are trying to create more opportunities for your son and daughters to be active this fall. We have expanded our “Gilson After the Bell Program.”

We are offering supervised activities Monday – Thursday 3:15-4:30 p.m. We hope to be offering Math Tutoring, Open Computer Lab, Board Games, Open Gym, and Art and Crafts.

These programs serve several important purposes, including:
* recreation and socialization in a safe environment
* providing opportunities to interact with pro-social peers
* occupying free time with supervision and positive choices
* adult supervision and the opportunity to interact positively with adults

This is an excellent opportunity for your sons and daughters to be actively involved in a positive and supervised activity. This program is sponsored by Drug Free Schools, Federal Grants and the United Way. If you have any questions please feel free to Sara Irwin Goudreau at the Parent Resource Center 835-4552, or myself at 835-2244.

"Risk can be transformed into opportunity for our youth by turning their non-school hours into the time of their lives."

Valdez Pride!
