A Unique Opportunity in Alaska
The Nenana Student Living Center is one of only three such boarding facilities in the entire state of Alaska. Students who live at the center attend the regular Nenana City School classes. They are not separated into a different school program. In fact, students from the center make up a large part of the high school's enrollment, about 70%. This shows how important the center is to the school community.
