We would like to acknowledge and thank the Coast Salish people whose traditional territory North Vancouver School District resides on. We express our gratitude to the Squamish Nation and Tsleil Waututh Nation and we value the opportunity to learn, live, and share educational experiences on this traditional territory. We hope that the materials detailed here will help our community better understand our shared history and make all aware of the richness of Indigenous past and present history, culture, and of the many resources available to our users.
