I would like to acknowledge that Hope Secondary School is situated on the traditional ancestral and unceded shared territory of the Chawathil people of the Tiyt Tribe. The Tiyt Tribes of the Stó:lō territory extend along the boundaries down both sides of the Fraser River from Yale to Seabird. We thank you for welcoming us to the territory and allowing us to carry out the work we are doing today.
