Welcome to SISD's school Howard Valentine Coffman Cove Schools website!
It is currently undergoing migration, updates, adaptations and debugging so please don't hesitate to reach out with any issues you might experience so we can fix them and create a smooth, engaging and interactive experience. Staff Login and editing abilities will roll out incrementally and the creation of staff pages and department pages will be coming shortly as well as the retirement of legacy pages.
We appreciate your patience through this transition.
Welcome to our school community!
In our unique Alaskan setting, education extends beyond the classroom. It is shaped by community, resilience, and a strong connection to the world around us. As a Pre-K through 12 school with multi-age classrooms, we provide a supportive environment where students grow together, build relationships, and develop a true sense of belonging.
This year we are especially excited about new Career and Technical Education opportunities opening up across the district. Students will have access to new pathways in electrical work, developed in partnership with AJEATT and IBEW, along with construction and tiny homes, HVAC, water systems, and welding. Hands-on intensives on Prince of Wales Island, along with new SkillsUSA and HOSA student organizations launching this year, will give students real world experience and a head start toward a skilled career.
Students also challenge themselves through academic opportunities like Battle of the Books and spelling bees, and take part in activities like kayaking and snowshoeing, building confidence and a love for learning. Our school culture is rooted in kindness, teamwork, and shared success, and through school wide gatherings, clubs, and athletic programs, students develop character, leadership, and pride in their community.
I am honored to step into this role as your Area Principal, and I look forward to meeting our students, families, and staff in person this August.
Thank you for being part of our school community.
Happy Trails,
Dr. Paulisa J. Scarlett, DBA, MBA
