Morley school officials are grateful the damage wasn t worse and say it was a team effort to repair damage caused by a shocking vandalism spree over spring break.
Steven Crowchild, a councillor representative for the Tsuut ina First Nation Education Board of Trustees, said that though he wished the celebration could have happened sooner, it s a great day for the community. I m just excited to revitalize the Indigenous brilliance and Indigenous teachings, Crowchild said Monday. I feel like we have a lot to share with the world.
First high school on reserve
Prior to $18-million facility opening, high school students on the Tsuut ina Reserve attended a crowded junior/senior high school, or had the option to go to a school off reserve.
That latter option remains, but principal Jeff Horvath hopes Tsuut ina Nation families consider sending their teens to Manyhorses, to what he said is a state-of-the-art facility with tailored cultural and language programs.
