This small, close knit community is a few hours upstream from the Alaska border and is home to the Tahltan First Nation. Tahltan School has approximately 23 students in K-9. The school staff takes pride in the success of their students in all learning domains. The school embraces local culture through activities such as Tahltan language, art, and culture including living on the land, fishing and camping, and Tahltan dancing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mission:<\/strong><br>In partnership with parents and the community, Tahltan School will provide a safe, caring, orderly and challenging environment where students develop skills, knowledge, values and cultural identity to become healthy, lifelong learners and valuable members of their community and Canadian society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Values:<\/strong><br>Tahltan School has four core values: <em>Respect, Independence, Kindness, Responsibility<\/em>.

We will have a school where students achieve their goals and staff continuously develop and demonstrate an understanding &amp; respect for diversity, selfdetermination, integrated cultural learning, rigorous experiential learning, the effects of trauma on learning, behavioural delays, as well as demonstrate an effective ability to provide ongoing meaningful and purposeful teaching and learning for students to reach their potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Beliefs:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A positive, challenging environment encourages learning.
