A new tradition is born at Northland School Division! All schools celebrated Northland Day by hosting a community gathering to kick-off the 2017-2018 school year. 

"Northland Day is an opportunity for school staff to interact with students, parents, Elders and community members,” said Gord Atkinson, Superintendent of Schools. "Schools organized a meal along with activities to celebrate dialogue, community and culture. It was exciting to have schools hosting events in unison."

In addition, a representative from Northland School Division or Alberta Education attended Northland Day events to help community members understand the new Northland Act, the process to become a Trustee and the establishment of a School Council.
