My students are resilient Alaska Native youth who come from various villages across the region. They bring with them rich cultural backgrounds, strong community values, and a deep connection to their heritage. Many face unique challenges due to their remote locations, but they show determination and strength in pursuing their education.
They attend our alternative school with a shared goal: to earn their high school diploma and create better opportunities for themselves and their families. In this supportive environment, they’re given a second chance to thrive—socially, emotionally, and academically—at a pace and in a way that honors who they are.
