This month provides an opportunity for Canadians to learn, reflect, and appreciate the contributions and experiences of Indigenous communities throughout the country.

It's time to celebrate 2SLGBTQIA+ Pride Month! School District No. 48 believes that we have a responsibility to ensure all schools are inclusive and safe spaces for students, staff and families of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Let's join together to celebrate diversity and create supportive environments where everyone can thrive! After all, one of our core enduring understandings is that "diversity is a strength." Please check out SOGI 1 2 3, an information and resource-rich non-profit where you can learn more about SOGI-inclusive education and the resources shared with caregivers and educators.
