Acknowledgement of Nuu-chah-nulth Territory

The Vancouver Island West School District acknowledges and gives thanks that we work, play and live on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Nuu‐chah‐nulth peoples, specifically the Ehattesaht, Ka:’yu:’k’t’h/Che:k’tles7et’h’, Mowachaht/Muchalaht, and Nuchatlaht Nations. We honour our relationship with these Nations and with all other First Nations, Metis, and Inuit peoples who reside in the territories we serve.

Indigenous Tutoring and Mentoring Program

Hello SD84 students and parents, 

 We would like to inform you of our program, the Indigenous Tutoring & Mentoring Program, which provides free tutoring and mentoring to Indigenous students. Tutors cover most K-12 subjects while mentors provide guidance on academics, such as time management, the process of applying to universities, choosing a major, and funding resources available to them. It is completely free and run by volunteers, and takes place over Zoom. Please feel free to check out our website (https://indigenoustutoring.wixsite.com/home) for more information. You can contact us within the website or at our email: indigenoustutoring@gmail.com . 


Board Commitment – click for presentation

The Board of Education is proud of our public education system in Vancouver Island West and we are committed to making it even better. We get our inspiration from our students and their innate curiosity, creativity and desire to learn.  The development of this five‐year strategic plan has been an ongoing process undertaken in partnership with our communities,
students and families through a series of community consultations. As a Board we thank all those who participated in this process to  create a plan that will benefit all our children.

The focus of the strategic plan is directly linked to our District’s Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreement and the work done  in partnership with the Nuu‐chah‐nulth Tribal Council and our local communities to create pathways forward for all our learners.  This plan is about creating a school district where equity is the norm and where we embrace the wisdom of our communities and the  professional judgement of our staff to focus our efforts towards creating a learning community which supports all students’ well-being  and success for all learners.

Thank you for all your support.

Sincerely,
Arlaine Fehr, Chair
Cyndi Rodgers, Trustee
Jenniffer Hanson, Vice‐Chair
Allison Stiglitz, Trustee
Katie Unger,  Trustee
