Mt. Edgecumbe High School Dormitory Management and Student Supervisory Services
Demographics: Currently, 425 students from about 109 communities throughout Alaska attend Mt. Edgecumbe. 59 percent of the student body is female, and 41 percent are male. Alaska Native students comprise 89 percent of the student population, 7 percent are Caucasian, and 4 percent are other or mixed ethnicity. 79 percent of students in attendance meet federal guidelines for free and reduced lunches. 54 percent of 2021 graduates were enrolled into a 2- or 4-year college or university. 46 percent were admitted to a technical training program, enlisted in the military, or entered the workforce.
MEHS has four dormitories in a physical setting like that of a college campus. Dorm rooms range from two to six occupants. Each student has a separate bed and closet or wardrobe. Each dorm has a central kitchen with refrigerators, freezer, and stove/ovens.
Many of the learning experiences that enable our students to become successful citizens occur outside of the traditional academic classroom (making healthy life choices, working collaboratively, and becoming a contributing member of a community) often takes place in the residential environment. Thus, the school’s residential program is critical to the Mt. Edgecumbe High School’s total program success.

Mt. Edgecumbe High School Dormitory Management and Student Supervisory Services
The Department of Education and Early Development, Division of Finance and Support Services on behalf of Mt. Edgecumbe High School, is soliciting proposals for dormitory management and student supervisory services at the dormitories located at Mt. Edgecumbe High School in Sitka, Alaska.
Mt. Edgecumbe High School (MEHS.US) is a public boarding school operated by the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development (DEED). Initially established in 1947 by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Mt. Edgecumbe provided Alaska Native students in grades 5-12 the opportunity to acquire a traditional education unavailable in rural Alaska. Serving more than 600 students at its largest, the school closed temporarily in 1983 as the Bureau of Indian Affairs reduced its role in Alaskan Education. Two years later, the school reopened under the governance of the Alaska Department of Education and Early Development. The central role of Mt. Edgecumbe High School in Alaskan education is to provide a broad range of academic and extra-curricular opportunities that are unavailable to students in isolated home schools and communities. Academic expectations are high and students who attend are expected to enroll in higher education. The official governing body charged with oversight is the Alaska State Board of Education.Demographics: Currently, 425 students from about 109 communities throughout Alaska attend Mt.
