Happy March!
Thank you for participating in our Spirit Week. Dr. Suess Night has been my favorite evening activity at Ticasuk Brown. I enjoyed visiting with families and sewing pillows with Ms. Marmie Poage. She is an expert at threading needles.
It is hard to believe that Spring Break is upon us! Please have an enjoyable and fun week in the sun!!
Respectfully yours,
Bev Kokrine

Jeannine Haney "Ms. J" - Student Behavior Support Technician
I came to Alaska in 2001 to work for dog mushing guides in Bettles, AK. It was supposed to be a couple of months-long adventure then back home to Oregon, but I kept extending my stay, working seasonal jobs throughout Interior Alaska. I've worked or subbed in the school district on and off since 2003, taking breaks to work at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Family Centered Services of Alaska, and Interior Alaska Center for Non-Violent Living, but the school district always lures me back!
I'm passionate about community activism, especially the systemic origin of barriers to resources such as education. I received my undergrad from UAF with a bachelor’s degree in Art, a bachelor's in Psychology, and a Minor in Women and Gender Studies. My undergrad research focus was Human Trafficking - specifically, the lack of programming to address the high rate of victimization in and around Fairbanks. Currently I am pursuing a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, focusing on Trauma and Crisis Counseling. I love to paint, garden, travel, and spend time with my family in my free time.
I'm excited to be here at Ticasuk! I look forward to getting to know everyone better and to supporting the needs of our awesome students.
