Ya Ne Dah Ah School Providing a high quality education with Traditional values and ethics.

Since 1992, the Ya Ne Dah Ah School has striven to teach, preserve, and rejuvenate the Ahtna Athabascan language, culture, songs, dances, earth stewardship, and history of Chickaloon Village. Using traditional methods, the cultural teacher, Athabascan Elders, parents, and community members teach our language, traditional values, ethics, and cultural traditions to our future generations. These methods combined with a high quality academic curriculum meet the needs of our youth by helping them gain an understanding of western educational principles. The Ya Ne Dah Ah School is an independent school that views Native Education as an important asset to all children’s learning. The YNDA School has developed cultural standards that include not only western educational standards but have our Athabascan traditional values and beliefs. Each grade level has a unique and individual curriculum standard for inspiring each child’s level of achievement.

Ugheli dzaen,
I wanted to share about an exciting opportunity with our YNDA parents!
Last October Alma and I completed our Positive Indian Parenting (PIP) Training through the National Indian Child Welfare Association (NICWA). Upon completing this training, we received a grant through Alaska Children's Trust, which will allow us to share these culturally specific parenting strategies with fellow community members.
Over the past few months, Alma and I have been diligently organizing our upcoming training sessions. We are happy to announce the first set of dates, with two additional sessions being scheduled for later this year.
Attached below is our flyer with the dates and information! Please take a look and see if this is a training that would benefit you or someone you know.
Please reach out to Maghee Leppanen (907) 745-0793 or Alma Robinson (907) 982-1862 to get registered!
Tsin'aen (thank you)
