School Overview
Marshall School, located in the remote community of Marshall, Alaska, serves as a vital educational hub within the Yukon-Koyukuk School District (LYSD). Situated along the banks of the Yukon River, the school is deeply integrated into the local culture and lifestyle of this rural Alaskan village. Because of its isolated geography, the school plays a central role in the community, providing essential academic and social services to students who live in an area accessible primarily by air or river.

The school is committed to fostering academic achievement while honoring the traditions and values of the local Native Alaskan population. By leveraging the resources of the Yukon-Koyukuk School District, Marshall School offers a curriculum designed to prepare students for both higher education and regional workforce opportunities. Through a focus on community-based learning and technological integration, the school strives to overcome the challenges of its remote location to ensure that its students are well-equipped for success in a modern, interconnected world.

1 National School Lunch Program (NSLP): The National School Lunch Program is a federally assisted meal program operating in public and nonprofit private schools. It provides nutritionally balanced, low-cost or free lunches to eligible children each school day based on household income thresholds or community eligibility options (CEO).
