Inuit Text Book Launched

A new high school text book was launched in Hopedale this week.

The new text book was launched at the Amos Comenius School in Hopedale.

The Labrador Inuit Society and Culture course was developed by the Nunatsiavut Government in partnership with the Newfoundland and Labrador English School District.

The two-credit course satisfies the Provincial high-school graduation requirements under the Canadian Studies and Fine Arts requirements, giving students in Nunatsiavut more flexibility when choosing courses.

The course has been offered in Nunatsiavut schools since 2015 as well as in schools in other parts of Labrador.
