Gitanyow Independent School offers K4-7 education to children living in (and occasionally around) Gitanyow. We strive to support the academic achievement and cultural connections of our students and community. We believe in promoting strong community connections; celebrating Gitxsan and other Indigenous ways of knowing; meeting our students where they are at and working with a growth mindset; and building positive staff/student relationships that create a safe learning space for all.
School Community
Our staff works well together and collaborates on school-wide events and initiatives. Our small size means that you can be a staff leader if you choose – we’re looking for positive-minded, energetic educators who are interested in trying new things in their classrooms and the school in general. Our kids are awesome: kindness and restorative justice are the foundations of our classroom management and as a result we have very few major behaviour or bullying issues.
Our Programs
Our school day runs from 8:45 am to 3:00 pm with staff (generally) working from 8:30 am-3:30 pm. Thirty-minute prep blocks are provided to classroom teachers each day while students attend our language and culture program. Class sizes are 20 students or less. We use Saxon Math, ReadWell and Reading Mastery programs that allow students to do numeracy and literacy learning at their own ability level.
