Today SHI welcomed nearly
60 teachers and staff from Dzantik’i Heeni Middle School as part of the
school’s place-based, culturally relevant in-service day. This is one of
several public programs SHI offers to educators and others interested in Native
culture. Staff gave tours of Sealaska Plaza and SHI’s archives and an overview
of our free online educational resources.
