TASK

A Collaboration between Hawaiian and Alaskan teachers

Ear Pull

Ann and Sione compete in the Ear Pull while in Nome, October 2019, for a professional development workshop, where teachers from Hawai'i and Alaska met each other for the first time.

Culture Club Dance Troupe

Culture Club, a Nome High School dance troupe, shared their dancing with the audience of TASK teachers and staff.

Teachers receive intensive professional development workshops and online peer mentoring to collaborate with one another, work with science and cultural experts, and incorporate culturally relevant science into their classroom teaching.

In addition, a student cultural exchange academy offers participating students a chance to learn about college expectations and campus living to help them with a smooth transition from high school to college life.
