Aboriginal people want an education that reflects their cultural
values and linguistic heritages, an education that will foster
their children’s engagement and identity and not marginalize them
as learners. This book turns the spotlight on a rare success story
– one Ontario high school’s attempt to recognize Aboriginal
students’ cultural and academic needs while helping them build
relationships with non-Aboriginal students. Aboriginal students
constitute one of the fastest-growing groups in public schools.
This timely study not only reveals how the current system is
failing Indigenous students – it offers recommendations for
enhancing their achievement levels in Canada and abroad.
