A Message of Support Following the Lapu Lapu Festival Tragedy

We at Sea to Sky Schools are deeply saddened by the tragic events at the Lapu-Lapu Festival — an important gathering that celebrates family, culture, and community.

We are thinking of the Filipino-Canadian community and all those who have been affected by this devastating event. Our school counsellors, district staff, and school-based teams are available to provide support to students, staff, and families who may be impacted.

The safety, care, and well-being of our learning community remain our highest priorities. In this difficult time, we offer our heartfelt support and stand alongside all those who are grieving.

About the Sea to Sky School District (No.48)

Nestled in the recreation-rich Sea to Sky corridor, just 45 minutes from Vancouver, our school district serves approximately 5,000 students. We are honoured to be teaching within a number of culturally vibrant communities, from Furry Creek to D'Arcy, including the main centres of Squamish, Whistler, and Pemberton. The District also serves six First Nation communities: Skwxwú7mesh Úxwumixw, Lil’wat, N’Quatqua, Samhquam Ucwalmicw, Skatin, Xa’xtsa, and the Metis, Inuit, and Off-Reserve Nations. We welcome a growing immigrant population and over 200 international students annually. Also rich with an abundance of active learning opportunities, our students love to learn here!
 
 
We create safe, purposeful, and powerful learning environments in order that all students can think critically, create, collaborate, contribute, and learn.
