Don Evans began his term as the district superintendent in 1993. In 1998 he left and founded Education Resources Inc., a company that provides administrative services to rural Alaska school districts. That year Education Resources Inc. began providing such services to the Southwest Region district. Marie Paul, a member of the Southwest Region board originating from Togiak, stated that the quality of administrative services remained the same.[3]
