This day marks not only a new chapter of leadership, but also a reaffirmation of the strength, unity, and vision of the iiyiyiu aschii.

Education is at the heart of our Nation’s future. The guidance of our leaders has always been central in advancing opportunities for our children, youth, and lifelong learners. As we move forward together, the Cree School Board remains committed to working hand in hand with our leadership to ensure that every learner has the tools, knowledge, and cultural foundation to thrive.

We recognize the immense responsibilities you now carry and the trust our people have placed in you. We stand ready to support your mandate, guided by the values of respect, collaboration, and the vision of a strong, self-determined iiyiyiu aschii.

May your leadership be blessed with wisdom and courage, and may it continue to inspire our people to walk proudly in the path of our ancestors while building a brighter future for generations to come.
