The Land Acknowledgment will be recited.
We, the Ferndale School District, acknowledge we are residing on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Lummi People.
The Lummi People are the original inhabitants of Washington's northernmost coast and southern British Columbia. They lived in villages throughout this territory and continue to have an ongoing relationship with these areas.
Since Time Immemorial, they have celebrated life on their water ways and on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded lands of their People to perpetuate their way of life.
We honor their ancestors as we acknowledge the past, present and future Lummi People as the original inhabitants of this land.
Dr. Dominguez and Dr. Tammy Campbell will lead the Board members in a process to develop the Mission Statement for the District.
Dr. Tammy Campbell of The Scholar First will join by Zoom.
