My middle school students are village hunters, fishers and gatherers; Yupik subsistence caretakers of the land. They must realize and value their culture again. The purpose of the classroom cultural literacy center is to highlight reading and history as the key to the rebuilding of a strong culture for children in the LYSD, AK., in a self-directed environment with structured modeling. With elders and community members in tandem, providing an environment of strong cultural immersion will increase cohesion, psychological and academic growth and spiritual healing of a community and native people.
