 ===== Education presence =====
 It is unclear whether the language is being taught in schools at all. In Anchorage three schools are members of the [[http://www.aleutregion.org/|Aleutian School District]], which offers a standard for the curriculum including education of Alaskan cultural heritage. Aleut language education, however, is not a part of the standard.
-Aleutian school district states, among other things that students should have read "a variety of literature within each of the cultural categories Alaska Native/American Indian" at level four. The website offers Unangax Dance photographs taken at [[http://www.aleutregion.org/unangax_dance|The Festival of Native Arts]]. Part of the curriculum is //Alaskan Studies//, in which students learn to identify languages of Alaska and cultural attributes such as dance, music, hunting, world views and beliefs. Native American bodies on legislation, human rights and recognition are also a separate element of the subject Alaskan Studies. Additionally, Alaskan history classes include the Russian period and the work of various missionaries. Awareness on resources and the effects of altering governments are also discussed.

 Cultural education is transmitted too through sports, such as baseball, Aleut style, which differs from the American and Russian baseball form and displays Aleut norms and values(( Csoba DeHass, M., Droulias, A. (2010).//Aleut baseball: Cultural creation and innovation through a sporting event//, Études/Inuit/Studies , vol. 34, n° 2, p. 21-37)).
