Student Work and Voice: Indigenous Water Crisis
Grade 8 students at James Culnan are sending letters to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and MPP Marc Miller regarding the Indigenous water crisis, particularly the Neskantaga First Nation Community in Northern Ontario, that hasn’t had clean drinking water for over 25 years.
Students in Ms. Hughes class are learning history through a social justice lens this year, including reconciliation and how the past treatment of Indigenous people impacts the present.
