Indigenous Education

Our Indigenous Education Enhancement Agreement goals are:
- Goal #1 -- Student Success Indigenous students will be supported to develop their full potential in all aspects of school life. I.e. Reading, academics, attendance, in career programs and graduating.
- Goal #2 -- Cultural Identity Students will learn about their own Indigenous cultural identity and connect with their ancestry in a meaningful way. When Indigenous students know their identity, who they are and where they have come from, they will develop a positive sense of self and belonging.
- Goal #3 -- Equity and Access Indigenous students thrive in an environment that supports equity and access to all opportunities in schools.
