SB 146 Alaska Senate · 34th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relating to the regional educational attendance area and small municipal school district fund; and relating to Mt. Edgecumbe High School.

SB 146 creates a dedicated fund to support education infrastructure in Alaska. It provides grant funding for regional and small municipal school districts, funds construction/maintenance at Mt. Edgecumbe High School, and covers major maintenance for state-owned teacher housing located within those school districts. The fund, capped at $70 million in unspent balances, directly affects regional school districts, Mt. Edgecumbe High School, and teachers working in those areas by addressing facility and housing needs. This bill focuses on concrete funding mechanisms for school infrastructure and teacher housing, without altering educational standards or policies.
