Calillgutekluta “Working Together” Project

This project is funded by an Alaska Native Education Program grant from the US Department of Education. The grantee is the Nunakauyak Traditional Council.

Project Outcomes: The long-term outcome is to preserve, protect, reconnect, and restore the Yup’ik culture so students lead meaningful lives connected to family, culture, and community. Intermediate outcomes correspond to the objectives described below. The Data Management System will provide annual assessment reports at the student-, teacher-, school-, district-, and item-level data for standardized test refinement.

Project Objectives and Activities:
• Develop a Data Management System (DMS) for the Yugtun Proficiency Test (YPT) to provide student assessment data utilized in the objectives below. Activities include: develope the DMS; train teachers in data collection; collect student data; produce assessment reports to facilitate data-informed decision-making concerning teacher training, curriculum revisions, and community engagement.
• Review and revise Yup’ik curricular materials using assessment results and feedback gathered through community forums. Activities include: formation of Yup’ik Curriculum Review Team, collaboration with test developers, and monthly meetings to systematically review and revise curricular materials; create Home Link Packets to provide support for remote learning support for families.
• Train teachers in effective ways to use Yup’ik language materials to increase language proficiency, cultural knowledge, and academic success with students, and to improve communication and engagement with parents.
• Engage Families and Communities through assessment results and Yup’ik curricular materials, solicit community feedback, and enhance engagement between families, communities, and their local schools.

Organizations: Nunakauyak Traditional Council in partnership with the Lower Kuskokwim School District (an LEA). Grant management provided by ASDN/ACSA.
