Project focuses on WWII Aleut relocation camp at Ward Lake

To understand the history of relocation camps in Southeast Alaska — including the Ketchikan area — more than 200 seventh- and eighth-graders across three English classes at Schoenbar read the book Aleutian Sparrow by Karen Hesse, a historical fiction novel written in verse about the Ward Lake camp that was opened in the early 1940s for the relocation of Aleut individuals.
