 Marshall
Cultural Atlas
This collection of student work is from
Frank Keim's classes. He has wanted to share these works for others
to use as an example of Culturally-based curriculum and documentation. These
documents have been OCR-scanned. These are available
for educational use only.
Education
There are two public schools here in Marshall including the Head
Start Program. In the community of Marshall, there are ten teachers,
four instructional aides and one secretary.
According to State Law and the District Attorney, a person can
attend school till the age of twenty, although he/she will need
permission from the 5 member Advisory School Board (A.S.B) of their
school.
The most important thing high school students here in Marshall
need to learn, according to Principal, Mike Hull, is taking
responsibility. This is especially important after high school
graduation. High school education is more structured and the students
get more help from the teachers. They are more closely monitored. But
college education is mostly about responsibility. You are always on
your own and must take responsibility for your own decisions.
The first high school class here inMarshall to graduate was Lena
Fitka and Nick Duny. Both graduated in the year 1980. They graduated
in the old red school which was torn down eleven years ago.
The Alaska Legislature has kept the budget the same for the last
couple of years. And they are now exploring theVoucher system, i.e.
the opportunity of a student to choose his own school. The Governor
and the Legislature aren't doing anything about improving education
in the villages by keeping it at the same funding level. As Mike Hull
said, since our reading and language skills have already improved, we
need more challenging reading, science and social studies to make our
skills increase even more.
