Honouring Truth and Reconciliation Across Sea to Sky Schools

In the lead-up to the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, students and staff across Sea to Sky Schools have been participating in learning, activities and events to honour the day and deepen their understanding of Truth and Reconciliation. Throughout the week, students and staff have also been encouraged to wear orange shirts to honour Survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never returned home, and recognize the ongoing impacts of the residential school system.

We encourage our school communities to continue learning, reflecting and taking part in meaningful actions toward reconciliation. Learn more about the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and ways to learn, reflect and participate by clicking on the headline.

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.
