On behalf of the Education Department, I extend a warm welcome to all students, families, and community members visiting our website. Our goal is to support lifelong learning, cultural preservation, and academic success for all our learners, from early childhood to post-secondary education and beyond.

Education is the foundation of our Nation’s future, and we are committed to providing high-quality programs that reflect our traditions, values, and aspirations. We work closely with our Elders, Knowledge Keepers, educators, and families to ensure that our students receive the support they need to thrive both academically and culturally.

Whether you are a student seeking resources, a parent looking for information, or a community member interested in our programs, we invite you to explore our website and connect with us. Together, we will continue to strengthen our education system and empower future generations.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team.

Miigwetch / Thank you,

Our vision is to acknowledge and honour the past, present, and future. We commit to honour and respect our culture, traditions, and Anishinaabe ways of life by ensuring our student’s success.
