Recognizing Pride Month - June 2025

This June, we recognize Pride Month as a time to reflect on the importance of inclusion, respect, and equity for the LGBTQIA2S+ community. At Sea to Sky School District, we are committed to making our schools welcoming and safe for everyone—students, staff, and families—regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. Creating environments where all individuals feel seen, supported, and able to thrive is part of who we are.

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.
