ImpactSuccess Stories
“It seems just about everyone ‘Outside’ heard the horror stories of freezing pipes, cold rooms, mold, and mildew in Alaska’s teacher housing in rural communities. Now we boast of having some of the best teacher housing in Alaska. Thanks to the new units, housing is no longer the major recruitment impediment it once was.”
- Jamie Stacks, Superintendent, Pribilof School District
“Before 18 new housing units were built in Kotzebue, the district had a difficult time retaining teachers, more than half of whom have families with them.”
- Dr. Norman Eck, Superintendent, Northwest Arctic Borough School District
