Good Morning Diomede,
We are monitoring the the inclement weather that we are facing through the afternoon and into the evening. With the winds shifting and bringing colder weather we know that things will be very slippery after our warm weather this weekend. It also looks like the wind is supposed to pick up this afternoon and we are watching this in case there are any needed changes to schedules.
School will be open this morning and operating as normal. However, the safety of our students is always our priority. If you feel that it is safer to keep your student home today please notify an employee of the school and any absences related to weather will be excused. We will notify families if anything changes.
Tournament Update: The Region 1 Bering Sea Conference brackets and schedules are now available!

Stay safe and stay warm.

All the teachers are stuck in Nome due to weather delays. Pathfinder expects that we will be able to fly on Wednesday. With this delay given consideration school will be cancelled tomorrow and Wednesday. I appreciate your patience with this. We are as frustrated with the weather delay as I expect many of you are. We are excited to see the students and hope that the weather changes.
Thank you,
-Diomede School
Good luck in the 2025 ASAA/First National Bank Alaska Wrestling Championships!

It’s that time of year again! We’re checking in to see how our school leaders (our Principals) are doing and where we can improve. We really want BSSD to be a place where everyone feels supported, and we can’t do that without hearing from you.
Completing the survey should only take a few minutes. Here is a short guide on how to complete the survey.
📢 Staff: Please take the survey twice. Once from your perspective as a staff member and again as a parent/community member.
📢 Parents: Your insights are highly appreciated! Please take a few moments to share your thoughts through a separate survey focusing on your parental perspective.
📢 Students: Your voice matters! You'll have the opportunity to express your opinions by participating in the survey at school.
This is completely anonymous. We want your honest thoughts, so please feel free to be open with us. Click here to complete the survey. The survey will be open until January 9, 2026.
If you need assistance accessing the survey, don't hesitate to contact a school administrator at your site. Your perspectives play a significant role in our plans for improvement. Thank you for taking the time to provide your valuable insights!
