Thirty students graduated from Oskayak High School in Saskatoon on Friday, the largest-ever graduating class in the institution's 30-year history.
Community members said it marked a powerful moment for the high school, which has a focus on aboriginal culture.
"Our school is culturally based. We teach spirituality, culture, language, and I think that really attracts the young people that want to know who they are and where they come from," said school elder Mary Lee, who has been around since Oskayak's beginning.
