"The Aleutian Staches" Celebrate the Splendor of Movember!

With the end of November comes the end of “Movember.” This year, five members of the Unalaska City School staff and supporters

brought back “The Aleutian Staches” team to participate in the worldwide fundraiser for men’s health issues. The men’s goal during the month was to keep their chins and cheeks clean while growing out their mustaches as a mark of solidarity.

The Movember campaign specifically targets prevention, education, research, and awareness of all types of men’s issues. This includes prostate and testicular cancer awareness, support, and aftercare. Mental health issues such as depression, domestic violence, and other forms of abuse are also a priority. 

Sixth grade teacher Josh Good was the team captain this year and would like to thank the community for their support. If you’d still like to donate to the Aleutian Staches, you can visit their page on the Movember website.

Chrissy worked as the Arts & Culture Director from 2015 until she moved away from the community in 2019. She now works with us as a consultant, producer, and video editor on special projects.
