| Abstract | This report is an analysis of issues in Alaska's elementary-secondary education system, based on 25 position papers delivered at a Center for Northern Educational Research forum in 1973. The forum arose from the widespread perception of need for educational reorganization and a concern about equal educational opportunities for Native Americans. The papers examined 10 broad options for reforming Alaska's school system, consisting of 29 local school districts, the Alaska State-Operated School System (ASOSS), and rural schools operated by the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). Regionalization of Alaska education is a subject that received considerable discussion in the papers. The major desire was for larger units to perform central office functions such as budgeting that local boards were reluctant to do. The analysis observes real and deep dissatisfaction with educational delivery in rural unorganized boroughs, and extensive controversy as to the best change strategies. The existing centralized ASOSS administration was perceived as being inefficient and frustrating to local leadership. ASOSS and BIA were seen as inhibiting rather than promoting educational improvement. The document makes many recommendations, largely concerned with legislative reform directed at reorganizing educational delivery in the unorganized boroughs. The recommendations are made in the hope that local initiative can join political reality for effective and reaching change. An appendix includes all the position papers and edited transcripts of other forum presentations. (TES) |
