• The Anchorage School District is the largest school district in Alaska, filled with diverse and vibrant students and staff. We receive dozens of requests each year to participate in research, both local and national. We weigh the potential benefits of each research request against the time and education costs for each student. We only approve research that provides a clear benefit to our students. 
• Research is a process of gathering new data. Research usually involves surveys, interviews, focus groups, and field observation. If you want to request existing data, see the above section "Request Data from ASD". 
• Research Requests must provide the name of an ASD staff sponsor that will act as a liaison for the researcher(s). ASD does not approve "cold call" requests for research, where the requesting parties have no prior contact or professional relationship to ASD. 
• Please see Student Privacy for more information on FERPA, PPRA, the eight protected areas, and survey exemptions before submitting a research request. 

If you have read about Student Privacy and Required Documentation and still want to conduct research at ASD, complete a Research Request.

If you wish to conduct research at ASD and need existing data for your research, please complete both data request and research request forms.
