Indigenous Education

Indigenous students

When you identify Indigenous ancestry, we learn more about our students and develop appropriate programs that reflect First Nations, Métis and Inuit cultures. Students benefit from learning about indigenous perspectives via:

• Native Studies courses;
• cultural opportunities; and
• resources and materials.

How to self-identify

We encourage First Nations, Métis and Inuit students to voluntarily self-identify their Indigenous ancestry. The following options are available to parents and students:

• New families can indicate Indigenous ancestry on our online registration form.
• Current families can complete the self-identification form and give it to your school prinicipal or secretary in a sealed envelope.
• Letter from our Director of Education.
