WELCOME

The Education Directorate was first formed in December of 1992. Prior to this employees were reporting directly to the Chief and Council. The Education Directorate was issued a mandate to construct and operate a school here in Listuguj and to ensure that the Mi'gmaq language and culture was interwoven into all aspects of the students' education. As a result of the mandate we systematically began to relocate our students to Listuguj beginning with Nursery and Kindergarten in September 1993.

OBJECTIVE

It is the express purpose of the Listuguj community to provide for our students an education which fully enhances an effective learning environment of emotional, cultural, physical, and intellectual development. This environment reflects Mi'gmaq beliefs and efforts at encouraging the responsibility of the people directing themselves to their full potential, and a love of learning.

VALUES

The Mi'gmaq values of sharing and dignity are rooted in inherent beliefs, principals and values of our people. In the belief that all our people our unique, we recognize and celebrate the embracement of our language and culture into our way of lief and into all aspects of life. This is reflected and is integrated in a positive expectancy, self-actualization and self-respect.
