The Jack Egnaty Sr School, nestled on the upper reaches of the Kuskokwim River, has few options. Like many schools in Alaska, it’s owned by the state, which is required by law to pay for construction and maintenance projects. Yet over the past 25 years, Alaska lawmakers have ignored hundreds of requests for rural public schools like this one, which primarily serve Indigenous children. Watch kyukmedia and ProPublica reporter emilyeschwing show us some of the numerous ways in which this school in Sleetmute, Alaska, is on the verge of collapse. Note for headphone users: There are beeping noises in the background at several moments in the video. #alaska #alaskaschools #alaskanative #indigenousalaskan #ruralschools
