The Southwest Region School District is committed to all students receiving an education that continuously affirms human diversity, that validates the history and culture of all ethnic groups, that is based on high expectations for academic success for every student, and that encourages students' and parents' active participation in the learning process. 

District Overview:

Located on the southern coast of the Bering Sea, this region of southwest Alaska is bordered by the Bristol Bay to the south, the Kuskokwim Mountains to the west and north, and the Aleutian Range to the east. The beautiful Bristol Bay region is considered the "gateway" to the Wood-Tikchik Wilderness area. More king and red salmon are harvested in Bristol Bay than anywhere else in the world. Also nearby are the famous Walrus Islands.  

The villages served by Southwest Region Schools are dispersed 20 to 125 miles away from the Central Office in Dillingham, that is located 350 miles southwest of Anchorage. Of the eight villages, only Aleknagik is accessible by road.  All villages are populated primarily by Alaskan Yup'ik Eskimos.   
The District enrollment is approximately 706 students, K-12.  These students are served by approximately 88 certified and additional classified staff members. The village schools are Aleknagik, Clarks Point, Ekwok, Koliganek, Manokotak, New Stuyahok, Portage Creek, Togiak, and Twin Hills.
