Galena City School District strives to provide an engaging, inspirational, and impactful learning environment for every student, in every content area, every day, through recruiting and retaining exceptional staff, actively partnering with our learning community, and serving the whole child. We do this through our four programs described below:

IDEA (Interior Distance Education of Alaska) is a statewide homeschool program that serves families across Alaska with offices in Fairbanks, North Pole, Wasilla, Palmer, Eagle River, Anchorage, Soldotna, Anchor Point, and Juneau.
GILA (Galena Interior Learning Academy) is a comprehensive residential high school with vast CTE options for students from across the state, and is located in Galena on a former military base.
SHS (Sidney Huntington School) is the local Galena school that serves kindergarten through 12th grade students in the community.
iGrad (iGrad Alaska) is a statewide alternative program that offers an optimal blend of teacher support and accelerated, quality, online education for high school students.
