2021-22 School Year
Please don't feed the foxes
Similar to other places in Whitehorse, we have foxes coming around the school. Please remind your children to be cautious around wildlife. These animals are cute but they are still wild. yukon.ca/sites/yukon.ca/files/env/env-living-with-foxes.pdf |
Welcome ☺ I respectfully acknowledge that I live and work within the traditional territory of the people of Kwanlin Dün First Nation and the Ta’an Kwäch’än Council. It is with great joy that I join you in kicking off the 2021-22 school year. The last 18 months have been challenging (to say the very least!) but it is with hope and anticipation that we look towards the next 10 months. We are officially in “recovery” mode—heading back towards “normal” and we are thrilled to be safely offering in-person learning. I am originally from Prince Edward Island but have been working in Yukon schools for 11 years. My husband, Erik, teaches at Vanier Catholic Secondary and we have a 2.5 year old son named Owen. We love all the wonderful things this territory offers and feel blessed to be building our life on these traditional lands. The feeling of family and connection that flows through this school community is very special. I vow to uphold this legacy by loving your children and supporting our staff in providing all students excellent opportunities for learning and growing. Please don’t hesitate to introduce yourself and thank you for all you do for our school. Maria Gray Principal, HFES |
