UAF lands grant to help design Yupik language lessons

 

The University of Alaska Fairbanks has landed a $1.7 million federal grant to help design Yupik-language lessons for schools in southwest Alaska.

 

The U.S. Department of Education is supplying the three-year grant, which will pay for the work of 12 teachers, eight aides and classroom materials that include laptops, software and other equipment. Schools in the Lower Kuskokwim School District and Lower Yukon School District are working with UAF on the project.
