Rational for E-Learning Outreach Program

At Fort McKay First Nation E-Learning School, we care about our students and want them to be successful. The school offers a structured alternative education program for students that is more flexible than a traditional high school environment. We can accommodate students who will be more successful in smaller school environment in their home community. Removing the barrier of a long commute to a large high school makes a big difference for a lot of students. 

At E-Learning we pride ourselves of cultivating a small, safe, and secure learning environment where each student can experience whatever success looks like for them.
