AMISKWACIY ACADEMY
 |
|
Long before history was recorded with pen and paper, Canada's Aboriginal people passed on their values, customs, knowledge and experience by example and through their gift of story telling. Amiskwaciy Academy was created to honour those traditions and to give students the opportunity to achieve academic excellence while learning to integrate respect, responsibility and balance into everything they do.
Amiskwaciy (pronounced a-misk-wa-chee) is the Cree word for Beaver Hills. This name is derived from Beaver Hills House which is the name the Cree people used for early Edmonton. The name honours both Edmonton's history and the important role Aboriginal people played in shaping that history.
The Academy is open to any student with an interest in understanding the values and traditions of Aboriginal culture. Our unique mix of programming, options, activities, events and personal guidance is designed to give students an opportunity to understand and appreciate the past, while preparing them for the challenges of the future.
