Calling all Indigenous students in Grades 7-12 to join
DCDSB's Student Indigenous Education Advisory Circle
The Student Indigenous Education Advisory Circle is an opportunity for DCDSB Indigenous students to share their voice and culture with students across our board. The Circle meets in February, April, June, September and November where members of the Indigenous Education Advisory Circle invite you to discuss what you would like to see happen or initiative implemented in Indigenous Education within our board. You will meet other Indigenous youth in DCDSB and community members as well as have the opportunity to share your own knowledge and extend your learning.
Our first
Indigenous Student Circle meeting of the 2021-2022 year is on September 22, 2021 from 12:30 - 2:00 p.m
. If your student is in Grades 7-12 and would like to join the Indigenous Student Circle please contact us at IndigenousEducation@dcdsb.ca.
For those who are interested in joining the Indigenous Student Circle please create an original work to demonstrate why you would like to be a part of this circle. This could be done through a short letter, art piece, poem, video, voice recording, essay or anything that you feel represents your interest in being a part of this circle.
Please also include one reference (kindly send their name and the name of the school or department they work at) from any board employee to go along with your work and send all submissions to IndigenousEducation@dcdsb.ca.
