Nome, AK 99762
My name is Loretta Muktoyuk originally from King
Island and my residency is in Nome.
I would like to make comments
on The Education Task Force.
Educational philosophy should
begin within the family home when the children are young and
nurtured as the children
are growing.
Teaching children to learn at a young age at home would
enforce good learning habits before they enter school.
Parents
should yet involved with their children with homework and set
time for them to complete their homework. Or
ask for tutors to help with subjects they are having problems
with,
if parents can not help them.
Before school starts
teachers should get themselves involved with community activities
in small communities,
so they
can get to know the people.
The school should work
more closely with Kawerak, Inc ., Regional Corporation, Colleges,
Universities
and
BIA to find out
more about training centers, colleges, and universities
to prepare
the students for training or higher education.
Invite the agencies as guest speakers.
Teachers, administrators,
parents need to work together to understand each other in order
to have
good working
relationship.
And I
think good working relationships make better
educators.
