Message from the Chair and Superintendent

The North Vancouver School District would like to thank the Coast Salish people, specifically the Sḵwxwú7mesh Nation and Tsleil-Waututh Nation, upon whose unceded traditional territory the school district resides. We value the opportunity to learn, share and grow on this traditional territory.

Dear Community Members,

On behalf of the North Vancouver School District and Board of Education, we are proud to share this year's Community Report.

Published each spring, the Community Report provides snapshots of the outstanding work happening across the school district. Collectively, the stories told in this school year's Community Report give reason to pause and reflect on all that is possible when people – students, educators, staff, families, Indigenous rights holders, education partner groups, and the wider North Vancouver community – come together to create connections, foster curiosity and build a community of learners.

This school year, we have focussed on reconnection and creating space for events, ceremonies and initiatives that reunite the community.

The stories highlighted within this report exemplify what makes NVSD schools vibrant learning communities. We invite you to visit the Learn, Share & Grow blog, where you will find more learning stories as they are added throughout the year—be sure to visit the website often at www.sd44.ca

Thank you for your interest in the teaching and learning across the school district and for your ongoing support of the K-12 public education system in North Vancouver.
