TUESDAY, MARCH 5, 2002 Teachers and aides at a shutdown school in the village of Kivalina, Alaska, say they felt threatened by students and got reports from village residents that they were not wanted. The staff says the problem wasn't necessarily an Alaska Native vs. White issue. Native staff were mistreated, they said, including a former Yup'ik principal who was said to have been chased out by the village. The state closed the McQueen school last week. It is not known when it might reopen. Get the Story:
