Beginning Monday, May 31, the PDSB will lower flags at all buildings as a sign of collective mourning for the 215 children whose remains were found at the site of a former residential school in Kamloops, BC.

Here is a brilliant recap from On Canada Project of the recent discovery at the former residential school and how we can educate ourselves moving forward. #onted #residentialschools #ResidentialSchool #unlearn

Teaching students to recognize privilege isn't about feeling guilt or blame due to their identities. It's about examining the power people have in different situations—and helping them recognize opportunities to advocate for others. learningforjustice.org/magazine/desti…

The PDSB is in collective mourning after hearing the heart-breaking news that 751 unmarked graves were discovered at the site of the former Marieval Indian Residential School in Cowessess, Saskatchewan.
