Vancouver School Board (VSB)

The Vancouver School Board is a large, urban and multicultural school district. They are committed to providing the highest quality learning experience for all students, helping them to reach their intellectual, social, and physical potential in a safe and inclusive environment.

They would wish to acknowledge that they are on the shared traditional territories of the Coast Salish peoples and acknowledge the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations; and for this they are thankful. It is with respectful consideration that the programs and services are provided to students and families to honour cultural protocols of these communities.
