Company Description:

Nome Public Schools is located in Nome, Alaska, a first-class city on the coast of the Bering Sea in NW Alaska.  We have three schools; a K-5 elementary school, a 6-12 middle/high school, and a 5-8 STEM Charter school.  Our busy and vibrant community is a hub for the Norton Sound Region, and is accessible only by air, with Alaska Air providing jet service daily from Anchorage.  We offer a competitive pay scale with full benefits, including relocation assistance.  Nome offers two grocery stores, several restaurants, a movie theater, recreation center with a bowling alley and climbing wall, and many opportunities for outdoor adventure, including hunting, fishing, hiking, kayaking, and fat tire biking.  Nome has a rich gold mining history, and still has several active mines; Nome is also a popular summer cruise ship destination.  Our student population of 700 is primarily Alaska Native (Inupiaq and Siberian Yup'ik), and we seek and welcome teachers of color.  We invite you to explore our website and also visitnomealaska.org to learn more about our beautiful community.
