The presenters state that non-Aboriginal teachers should have cultural sensitivity training and that more Aboriginals in the education field are needed. Katt states that because of numerous staff who are Aboriginal, his high school has the best rate of graduation for Aboriginal students in northern Ontario. Following the presentation is a question-and-answer session with the Commissioners. | |
