Acknowledgement of Traditional Lands

Recited by Kristen Parks, Trustee, Sidney and Frankford: As Trustees for Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board and as settlers to this land, we acknowledge and honour the land on which we reside, occupy and meet as part of the traditional territories of the Haudenosaunee, Huron-Wendat and Anishinabek people.  These Indigenous Nations agreed to mutual sharing obligations and responsibilities as stewards of the land and water.  Today these responsibilities and obligations extend to all Peoples.  These lands are steeped in rich Indigenous history, traditions and modern cultures that are proud and vibrant.  The Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board supports and is committed to the stewardship of the land, and the responsibilities that we hold to ensure learning, education programs and services support all staff and students.
