Dr. Edna Ahgeak MacLean

Blending Iñupiat heritage and traditions with a supportive, high-quality education.
Guidance from trained, local Ilisaqtitchiriit who monitor student academic progress and are passionate about serving youth and fostering the Inupiaq language and culture.

Qargi Academy offers high school students:
1 on 1 mentoring and Iñupiat cultural instruction from local Ilisaqtitchiriit
One of the main goals of the Qargi is to pass on the Iñupiat skills and values by allowing elder culture bearers to transfer community wisdom to students. These Ilisaqtitchiriit are available in-person to share traditional knowledge and mentor students in their cultural and academic growth.
Flexible, personalized learning tailored to each student's needs
Whatever level of instruction a student requires, we’re prepared to provide it. Students have flexibility in following their path to graduation with support from Qargi Academy teachers who connect regularly via email, chat and videoconference. Online classes can be accessed from the Qargi or home.
