Student Programs


Aboriginal Education


School District No. 49 (Central Coast) lies within the shared traditional territories of the Nuxalk, Heiltstuk, and Wuikinuxv Nations.

The language and cultural programs within the schools offer a wide array of opportunities to enhance the learning opportunities for all First Nations learners. The school district’s Local Education Agreements with the Nuxalk Nation and the Heiltsuk Nation, the Equity in Action project and the Framework for Enhancing Student Learning provide the goals, strategies and structures used as a framework for the success of our students.
