District Overview
We provide safe, positive learning environments that honour and celebrate the cultural heritage of our communities. Our goal is to assist students to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes to be lifelong learners and healthy, productive members of society.
Specialty Programs
Schools are staffed with a 10 to 1 pupil-teacher ratio to best serve the needs of our students. There are a wide variety of cultural and outdoor activities offered throughout the year. Teachers are afforded many opportunities for professional development, and we encourage collaboration and the development of learning communities.
Draw for Employees
Our staff benefits from some of the highest salaries in the province; a relocation allowance upon arrival (with an additional amount offered after two years); isolation allowance; annual personal travel allowances; a substantial professional development package; 100% medical, extended health, dental and group health insurance; and modern teacher accommodation at a reasonable rent.
Regional Diversity
The Stikine is a pristine natural environment that suits outdoor enthusiasts of all interests, as well as those who just prefer a slower-paced life. Avid history buffs will enjoy discovering the many stories these spaces hold. This is rural living at its best!
Community Culture
Three distinct First Nations (Tahltan, Taku River Tlingit and Kaska) contribute their culture and traditions to help form each close-knit community. Our schools are the centres of community life.
