Oskāyak Elders Message
Quoted
by late Kehteyak Simon Kytwayhat:
"This
is a healing school. It takes a
long time to learn to open up as a young person. We open to our children here like this
(arms opened wide). It's very
important.
Mary Lee:
"I
have a lot of respect for what this school is trying to do for its
students. A lot of patience is
shown as they struggle with daily problems. We also try to accommodate the cultural
and spiritual needs of our students.
We open the doors to youth for things they might have missed out on in
the city. It's healthy that
they learn to know the different Elders.
From there they can choose what is comfortable to them."
