Cougars, don't forget to wear orange today in honour of Orange Shirt Day. We will also be participating in our Walk for Wenjack throughout the day.

Fact #2 for #OrangeShirtDay: Indigenous students were often forcibly taken from their homes to attend #residentialschools. They were forbidden to wear traditional clothing. The vast majority were not allowed to speak their own languages at school. #TruthBeforeReconciliation

[Baden Public School @bdnwrdsb]

With #OrangeShirtDay being this Friday, we want to share some facts about residential schools each day because we need #TruthBeforeReconciliation
Fact #1: 130 residential schools operated in Canada between 1831 and 1996, with over 150,000 Indigenous children forced to attend

Every year on September 19th, #Métis communities across Ontario mark #PowleyDay to remember the decade-long legal battle that lead to a landmark victory for Métis rights. Whether out on the land or attending virtual workshops, how do you plan to honour Powley Day this year?
