SAVE High School
Student Activities
Student Activities
Activities at SAVE offer students the opportunity to participate in enriching life experiences outside of the classroom. The following are a sampling of our recent activities.
Recycling Club
SAVE High is proud to participate in the district-wide recycling program. Student volunteers gather classroom paper products and deposit them into our school’s designated recycling dumpster provided by Alaska Waste. In addition to paper products, students gather plastic bottles and aluminum cans and transport to the city recycling center every month.
Salmon Egg Take
This is a SAVE High School science project that is coordinated with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to collect Silver Salmon fry from nearby Cambell Creek. These fry are then incubated through out the school year in our science class. Students study topics such as the four developmental stages of a salmon, salmanoid life cycle, salmonoid habitat and the economic impact of salmon on local and state economies. Students will then release salmon fry in Taku Lake.
Ski & Snowboard Program
Ski & Snowboard Program
Students with good ratings and excellent attendance are invited to participate in the ski and snowboard program. Six times during the winter, students head to Alyeska. Many students who have participated in previous years have never been skiing or snowboarding before. They begin with lessons and eventually make their way to the top of the mountain by the end of the program.
