Commercial fishing is still a native occupation, but the economy is primarily supported by tourism.
In 1998, major renovations were completed at both our elementary school and high school. In addition, a brand new middle school was built adjacent to our high school , sharing many of the core facilities with the high school. Through the building project, our buildings were fully equipped with the latest technology. Each school has a separate computer lab, and an additional computer lab which is part of the Media Center, shared by both the middle and high schools. In addition, each classroom has five student computers, and a large television monitor hooked up to the computers for classroom presentations.
