Remarkable Work of Dr. Sheldon Jackson in Alaska Education
Dr. Sheldon Jackson, United States general agent of education in Alaska, drew world attention for transforming the territory’s education. Starting in 1885 amid sparse population and icebound travel, he built a system that now employs about seventy teachers serving nearly three thousand pupils, with natives warmly welcoming the schools. Jackson, a Presbyterian minister, had prior missions among the Choctaw and later helped establish church and civic structures across western states, and he introduced Alaska’s first canoe mail service in 1883 and the territory’s first district government a year later.
