Eight students made up the first class to graduate from the school in Colville Lake, N.W.T., in eight years.
The community put on a feast last week to mark the occasion and celebrate the achievements of students from Colville Lake School during a year of adapting to the COVID-19 pandemic.
It was a momentous occasion and, as it was described by Behdzi Ahda First Nation Chief Wilbert Kochon, a long time coming.
