Mrs. Brown’s High School students have put up a weather station for Nanwalek and it is operational! Go to Nanwalek Weather Station to check it out. Since we share a zip code with Homer, the website says Homer, but it is information from our students’ station. Also, if you search for Nanwalek in Weather Underground, it will bring up the information from our weather station. This is an ongoing project for our High School students and they will be continuing to work with it to make it better and better for our community.

“It is with great sadness that we learned one of our long-time Nanwalek School staff members has died during a house fire on Tuesday. Our hearts go out to Jim Reinseth, his family, friends, and the staff, students, and community of Nanwalek where he has been an educator since 2007. We are working with our principal and the village to ensure that any additional support and comfort that we can offer is provided.” –Superintendent John O’Brien

Emotional support has been made available to staff and students to assist them as they navigate through this difficult process. Jim dedicated many years of service to the Nanwalek community and will be greatly missed.
