Principal's Message
Dear Students, Parents, Staff, and Community Members,
Mahsi juo nahgonahthe’
Welcome to the new academic year at Upper Hay River School! As we gather here this year, I am filled with excitement and anticipation. Our school, nestled along the Meander River in Treaty 8 Territory, is not just a place of learning—it’s a vibrant community where students come to grow, explore, and thrive.
To our returning students, welcome back! Your resilience and commitment inspire us all. And to our new students, whether you’re starting kindergarten or entering high school, we’re thrilled to have you join our family. Together, we’ll create memories, forge friendships, and embark on a journey of discovery.
Our dedicated teachers and support staff are here to guide you. They bring passion, expertise, and a genuine love for education. Let’s make the most of their wisdom and encouragement.
Parents and guardians, thank you for entrusting us with your children’s education. We value your partnership and look forward to working closely with you throughout the year.
Community members, your support is invaluable. Whether you’re a neighbor, or elder, your presence enriches our school. Let’s continue to build bridges between our classrooms and the wider world.
As we step into this new chapter, let’s remember that education is not just about textbooks and exams. It’s about character, kindness, and resilience. Let’s foster an environment where every student feels seen, heard, and valued.
Together, we’ll create a year filled with laughter, growth, and meaningful connections.
Welcome to Upper Hay River School!
Thank you.
