Severe ice damming, roof damage and a bulging wall are signs that the Sleetmute school is facing a very real threat of potential collapse.

Tuesday on Alaska News Nightly:

Crumbling rural school buildings in Alaska put children at risk. Plus, Sen. Murkowski's defense of Ukraine earns her some praise from Republican colleagues — but not publicly. And, Iditarod mushers say this year's field is small because the sport has gotten so expensive.

Reports tonight from:

Rhonda McBride and Ava White in Anchorage
Clarise Larson in Juneau
Jack Darrell in Ketchikan
Emily Schwing in Sleetmute
Liz Ruskin in Washington, D.C.
