SHARE YOUR VISION: Indigenous School in Hamilton

Posted on July 20, 2026

The Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB), Indigenous Education Council (IEC), and Niwasa Kendaaswin Teg are exploring the creation of an Indigenous school in Hamilton.

As part of this work, Indigenous community members are invited to share their voices and perspectives through upcoming engagement sessions and an online community survey. The school would be co-developed alongside Indigenous and non-Indigenous learners, families, communities, HWDSB staff and Indigenous community organizations.
