One elementary school’s staffing scenario:
2025-2026 14 classroom, 1 music, 1 gym, 1 library, 0.5 health, 0.5 art teachers.
2026-2027 11 classroom, 1 gym, 1 librarian, 0.5 music, 0.5 art teachers.

56 teachers laid off. 24 other district staff laid off. 249 employees displaced from their current positions and moved to other schools and positions. Elementary Music, Health and Art teachers are all having to apply for revised positions within the #AnchorageSchoolDistrict. #education #alaskasky
Ugh, this is killing me. 32 kids in fourth and fifth grade classes, on average, next year if the levy doesn’t pass. Gonna be rough on my students. #alaskasky #Anchorage #AnchorageSchoolDistrict #educationfunding #education
🤼Zachary Thompson and his opponent show why wrestling is more than a sport and why it deserves strong support and funding. Watch him in action here! 💥 tinyurl.com/y3kf9u8b 🏆🤼♂️ #wendlerwrestling #anchoragesports #YouthAthletes #TeamZach #MatMagic #zachattack #AnchorageSchoolDistrict #Wendler #sports
#AnchorageSchoolDistrict absolutely should be consolidating schools to use their resources efficiently. AND the #akleg should be adequately funding public education. #alaskasky
Glad to see it settled, allowing everyone to focus on communicating to the public and legislators about the need for increased and sustainable funding- and the need to fix retirement for Tier 3 Teacher Retirement System members. #alaskasky #akleg #educationfunding #anchorageschooldistrict
Anchorage School District faces $90M deficit, proposes cutting hundreds of positions www.alaskasnewssource.com/2026/01/31/a... #alaskasky #educationfunding #akleg #anchorageschooldistrict
Thank you to the #anchorageassembly members who voted to add the educational tax levy to the April municipal ballot. If approved by voters, it could offset a $89 million deficit by about $11.8 million. #education #anchorageschooldistrict
Relieved to see this compromise brought forward. I support it but hear a lot of negativity from colleagues. Really curious what Tier 3 educators think of it. Will they support it? Does it make sense for them to stay in education for this kind of compensation? #anchorageschooldistrict #education
Our community deserves better. Investing in our youth is key to long term thriving. I lay the blame firmly at the feet of Dunleavy and like minded folks who have set out to undermine public education. #alaskasky #education #anchorage #anchorageschooldistrict #republicans

#AnchorageSchoolDistrict announced a weather closure day today. Stay off the icy roads and be safe. #alaskasky #anchorage #education
Check in with the educators you know. Talk with your neighbors . It would be a shame for this to sneak up on community members. #alaskasky #anchorage #anchorageschooldistrict #anchorageeducationassociation #education
I’m really trying to accept this at face value and not view it as public positioning in reaction to teacher contract negotiations. #asd #alaskasky #education #anchorage #anchorageeducationassociation #anchorageschooldistrict

shorturl.at/sF0Dq I was the designated "Baton Teacher" Longer story, we got sent the wrong kind of batons-- as in music director batons. Be that as it may, I met and got to know people who are in my civic life arena. I had a fantastic time! Great job y'all! #HBCU #AnchorageSchoolDistrict
