We arrived at the school to see the entire student body out on the portico of the school, applauding the arrival of the census to Noorvik (wouldn't it be great if every city in the US greeted census workers with such enthusiasm?). I met the elders of the village, who were assembled in the lnupiat culture room, now used to instruct the children in their native language.
We visited a few classrooms where I found that the kids were totally on top of why the census is done, how often it's done, and how it benefits the country.
I also participated in a few satellite uplink interviews with various media, accompanied by a twelfth grade student who talked about how the census fits into Noorvik's future.
At 1 p.m., I rode with the mayor of Noorvik on an ATV to visit the very first household to be enumerated in the 2010 Census. I knocked on the door and was ushered in. We completed the interview in just a few minutes; I exited to see a whole slew of press people down the road. I was happy to announce, "One down; 309 million more to go!"
