TASK Hawaii

Sixteen Nome-Beltz students – 14 seniors and two juniors – traveled to Hawaii last month to learn the ways in which their counterparts on Oahu live and perpetuate their Native culture. The exchange is part of a three-year program called TASK, Teacher Ambassadors Sharing Knowledge, that already saw Nome teachers and educators from Wai’anae on Oahu visit each other with the goal to collaborate on culturally informed STEM (short for science, technology, engineering and mathematics) teachings.
