First Nations, Métis, and Inuit Program in the Grande Prairie Public School District


The FNMI Program Coordinator for the Grande Prairie Public School District shares about the inclusion of Indigenous knowledge in the school system.

Building community relationships and highlighting local resources to help support the inclusion of Indigenous knowledge in Grande Prairie’s pre-K to grade 12 public classrooms. A critical component of this happens outside of the classroom through First Nations, Métis, and Inuit (FNMI) Family Outreach Workers by being available to help address possible barriers to education. This success in this piece of the FNMI Program is that family enhancement work is being done; working with a family as a whole. This is key to relationship building within the community and building connections with families.

Please note: The quality of the audio and video in each interview on NCCIE.CA may vary. NCCIE has been a capacity- and skills-building project for students and youth. They have been "learning-through-doing," learning how to arrange and conduct interviews while, at the same time, gaining experience with the technology.
