The Indian Education program supports the efforts of school districts, Indian tribes and organizations, postsecondary institutions, and other entities to meet the unique educational and culturally related academic needs of American Indian and Alaska Native students so that they can meet the same challenging state academic achievement standards as all other students.

Southwest Region School District is developing a Yup’ik Studies curriculum that incorporates the rigorous state and district academic standards.  The funds are used for professional development, and personnel including instructional aides and teachers.

*The annual performance report for the 2019-2020 school year has been delayed until 2021 because the state assessments were not able to be given due to school closures last spring.
