Principal

Welcome To Fireweed!

Whether you are already a part of our community, interested in learning more, or just stopping by – I’m glad you’re here with us! Our school offers a unique experience for K-6 students in the Southern Kenai Peninsula as the only charter in the area. We get kids using their hands with project-based learning, high quality curricula that are chosen by our community, Socratic seminars, thematic units, and getting into the outdoor classroom – all to instill the 6 Fireweed ‘Learner Outcomes’ in each student at our school. I’d love to connect if you have any questions!

Communication

‘2,4,6,8, how do we communicate?’ Mostly through email!

  • I’m here for you if you need to communicate anything via phone or in person. Have a concern or a celebration? You know where to find me! You can also submit a response to the “Fireweed Feedback” form linked above.
  • If you’re looking for me in person, my general schedule will be starting at Little Fireweed M/W/F and Big T/Th while switching around lunchtime.

I have an ‘open door’ policy and welcome any communication, feedback, or ideas that you would like to share with me.

Best,

Kyle Darbonne
