Parkland School Division (PSD) is celebrating the achievements of its Indigenous students.
Last week, the division hosted its fifth annual “Cultural Graduation Celebration” at Memorial Composite High School (MCHS) for the graduating class of 2021.
“Culturally, it’s really important for us to think about milestones and achievements in a sacred way beyond just an academic way. The success of our high school First Nation, Metis, and Inuit students needs to be celebrated in a way that they start to see themselves as not a number anymore, rather contributing members of the community,” said PSD Indigenous Education Facilitator TJ Skalski.
