Immersion School in Kotzebue is Set to Expand

The Inupiak immersion school in Kotzebue is getting ready to expand. The tiny one-room school currently teaches pre school, kindergarten and first grade. But next year teachers and students will move to a two room building and accept second graders for the first time. Its an important step for an institution that’s playing a crucial role in keeping the endangered language alive.
