A Glimpse of Lower Kuskokwim School District
The Lower Kuskokwim School District is an exciting and rewarding place to learn and teach in "bush" Alaska.
LKSD is the largest rural school district in Alaska with 27 schools, 350 teachers, and about 4,000 students, many of whom are Yup'ik. The landmass of the district is about the size of West Virginia, spreading along the Kuskokwim River and Bering Sea coast of southwest Alaska. Travel is by jet from Anchorage, and then by small plane, snowmobile, or boat from the regional hub, Bethel, to village sites.
LKSD supports instructional staff with a robust professional development program, from whole groups to individually selected courses. We also offer a teacher mentor program that includes orientation to the local culture and learning about our curriculum.
