Description
One of Alaska's largest rural districts, LKSD services a 44,000 square mile area roughly the size of the state of Ohio. Over 4,000 students (K-12) of mostly Yup'ik Eskimo heritage are served by the district's 400 certified staff members and numerous paraprofessionals. One-fourth of the certified teachers are Yup'ik, the greatest percentage of indigenous educators of any district in Alaska.
Mission Statement
Our primary goal is to hire the best instructional staff to provide outstanding educational opportunities for LKSD students.
