Janine Landry interviews Pic River First Nation’s director of education, Lisa Michano-Courchene about the Pic River secondary program. The Pic River Secondary program is one that allows students to attain their education in a setting that better meets their individual needs while being able to receive their education in their home community. The community creates a summer program in which students prepare for and embark on a canoe trip in their traditional territory along with community people. This program is accredited and the students can receive a credit towards their diploma for being a part of this summer course.
