This week on Sounding Board, we want to know: what should be the priorities for education in Western Alaska?
In 2015, our schools are facing many challenges and changes: funding cuts, changes in how we measure the quality of education, and district turnover.
- How do you think our schools are doing?
- How does turnover affect the education children receive?
- Where should we focus for growth: on meeting national benchmarks, improving cultural education, career readiness, or something else?
Call KNOM this Thursday, February 5, at 10 a.m. to join the conversation. You can share your thoughts in the comment box below.
