Teach, Inspire, and Adventure in Alaska: Join LKSD for the 2025–2026 School Year
Relocation to Alaska required
Are you ready to embark on an unforgettable teaching journey? The Lower Kuskokwim School District (LKSD) is looking for passionate educators to join our team for the 2025–2026 school year. Teaching in rural Alaska is more than a job—it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in a rich cultural experience, inspire the next generation, and make a lasting impact.
LKSD is the largest rural school district in Alaska, serving approximately 4,000 Yup’ik students across 27 schools with a team of 250 teachers. Located along the Kuskokwim River and Bering Sea coast, our district spans a landmass comparable to the size of West Virginia.
What makes LKSD unique?
Adventure: Reach our village sites by jet from Anchorage, then by small plane, snowmobile, or boat.
Culture: Engage with the Yup’ik community and support bilingual, culturally responsive education that prepares students to be responsible, productive citizens.
As a teacher in LKSD, you will:
Maintain high expectations for academic achievement and behavior
Use assessments to measure growth, mastery, and instructional impact
Differentiate instruction to meet diverse learning needs
Provide targeted interventions for at-risk students
Collaborate with fellow educators and community members
Build strong relationships with students, families, and colleagues
Participate in professional development and school committees
We seek educators who bring:
A sense of adventure and a willingness to live and work in a cross-cultural, rural environment
A valid Alaska teaching certificate (or the ability to obtain one)
A bachelor’s degree and demonstrated commitment to effective teaching
Dedication to creating an inclusive, engaging learning environment
LKSD provides competitive compensation and support:
Annual salary range: $59,831–$102,722
$2,000 signing bonus
Subsidized housing in many communities
Full travel reimbursement from your site to Anchorage
Induction training and ongoing professional development
Join LKSD for the 2025–2026 school year and experience the personal and professional rewards of teaching in one of the most unique and beautiful settings in the world. Relocating to Alaska is more than a move—it’s a life-changing adventure where your work truly matters.
