Documents & Presentations
Description
File contains an individual presentation by Helen Charlie focusing on education in Old Crow. She states the elementary school teaches students how to sew, cook, fish, hunt, trap and numerous other traditional ways of the Vuntut Gwich'in First Nation. She calls on the Commission to help secure a high school in Old Crow, which she feels would encourage students to remain in school and hopefully lead to post-secondary education. A question-and-answer session with the Commissioners follows the presentation.
