What stands out about how Eagle is run
Read from the city’s budget and official records.
Alaska Gateway School District
Eagle’s K–12 school district. The schools are run by Eagle, so this money is part of the budget above.
Of the $46,593 per pupil, $21,583 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
Alaska districts overall: 24% local, 55% state, 21% federal.

Schools are part of the city’s budget, so they lead the receipt: 84% of day-to-day spending.
Thank you for being a neighbor
Eagle runs its own schools, so school spending is part of this budget.
Eagle didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.
