School Overview
The Andrew K. Demoski School is a K–12 educational institution located in the remote village of Nulato, Alaska. Situated along the Yukon River, the school serves the local community as part of the Yukon-Koyukuk School District.

The school’s curriculum is designed to meet state academic standards while integrating the unique needs of its rural student body. Through its affiliation with the Yukon-Koyukuk School District, the school emphasizes a commitment to student success, community involvement, and the use of technology to bridge the gap created by geographic distance. By offering a comprehensive K–12 program, the Andrew K. Demoski School serves as a primary hub for learning and extracurricular activities, fostering both academic growth and community cohesion in the Nulato area.
