Learn about life in Alaska
Most American educators drive to work or maybe take a bus to their schools. But, here in Alaska, things are different. SERRC staff travel the state by air (jet, float, and prop planes), boat, snow machine, and – if need be – by dog sled to provide the children of Alaska with the best possible programs and services.

Culture
Alaska is home to many different
ethnic groups, including Alaska
Natives. With more than eleven
distinct cultures and 20 different
languages, there is no one Alaska
Native Culture. Alaska Natives
make up about 15% of the
state’s total population.
Along with Alaska’s first people,
America’s far north is also
comprised of other ethnic
groups – all of which have their
own language and culture.
In Alaska, almost each
community hosts a unique
combination of not only ethnic
groups – but cultures and
sub-cultures. From fishermen
(and women) and loggers, to
people who work in tourism and
the oil industry, to large groups
that live a subsistence lifestyle –
Alaska is truly a world unto itself.
Working as a special education itinerant
SERRC’s Itinerant Special Education
Related Service providers deliver
services to school districts located
in rural and rural-remote Alaska.
While Alaska’s three major cities
may be indecipherable from small
urban clusters in other states,
“bush” Alaska is unlike any town or village in the lower 48.
In fact, many residents live a subsistence or semi-subsistence
lifestyle. Due to the lack of roads, travel in and out of “bush”
Alaska is limited to air travel in small planes.
All SERRC itinerants are expected to perform evaluations
for special education eligibility as well as assisting with the
implementation of services.
