Akiuk Memorial School

Date of visit:

Sept. 6th & 7th, 2000

Off to Kasigluk, first visit is with Akiuk.

The Cross Country Team. Now here is an example of dedication. They actually load up in boats to cross the river to train on the Akula side of Kasigluk for they do not have enough boardwalk and trails on their side! Go team, go!

What a cheerful greeting... from everyone.
Alex turns away from her busy agenda to pose for a picture - thanks Alex for all of your help while I was there!

Carl Williams is always seen helping students.
I think some of these kiddos would live in the computer lab if we let them! Ha ha ha!

Oops! The iBooks went to Saint Mary's while I was to instruct in Akiuk. Improvision in action thanks to Esai Twitchell. Jr. and flexible teachers!

Smile for the camera! How do you like the make-shift screen covering the doorway?


( NIce boat Bev! )

Carl's hospitality and homemade lentil soup have become a legend in my mind and stomach not to mention the screamin' boat that he escorted me to his school in ! Superb job Carl!


Transportation between sites was by a small boat. David is responsable for delivering home cooked meals to the Village Elders daily. I hitched a ride to Agula, thanks David.
