Welcome New Teachers to the
Lower Yukon School District
You have chosen to embark on an adventure of the likes you have never experienced before. Your journey will test
both your physical endurance and mental fortitude in ways that you have not imagined. You will be called on to
fulfill duties in which most have only read about. You will be professionally challenged to employ and expand
your current skills, knowledge, wits, and resourcefulness. You will be immersed in a culture and part of the world
that is likely beyond your current experiences. Your presence will have an immediate impact on those around you.
You will gain a sense of pride and satisfaction measurable by the smiles that surround you. You will not be alone.
You are a part of the group we call the Lower Yukon School District. Welcome to our communities.
As a new employee in our community, you will likely face many new transitions, both personally and
professionally, in the upcoming months. The purpose of this packet is to provide a practical guide to address some
of the questions you may have. While this guide is by no means comprehensive, it is a start to make you feel more
at ease. Over the years, a number of teachers have contributed to the content to help facilitate your move. To read this

Enjoy the read. See you soon!
