Print article Two Chevak men remain missing days after a fire devoured the former school building in the Southwest Alaska community, subsequently causing power outages and leaving many homes without water or sewer. In the early hours of Monday morning, flames began pouring out of the abandoned school building, Alaska State Troopers said in a statement. The community of just over 1,000 people does not have a fire department and the building was a total loss. Gretch Chayalkun said she’d fallen asleep Sunday night and woke in the middle of the night to news that the building was on fire. She said she hopped on her snowmachine and headed toward the building, where the blaze had illuminated the night sky orange. Thick smoke hung in the air, she said.
