École Foothills Composite High School / Alberta High School of Fine Arts is on Treaty 7 territory, a traditional travelling route, gathering place, and meeting grounds of Indigenous Peoples. Our school is on the ancestral, traditional, and future lands of the Siksikaitsitapi, which is comprised of the Siksika, Piikani, Amskapi Piikani First Nations; the Tsuut’ina First Nation; and the Îyârhe Nakoda, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw and Goodstoney First Nations, as well as the Métis Otipemisiwak and Esikisimu Nunangat. We are grateful for the languages, cultures, traditions, and histories of this land that influence our lives, providing the foundation to grow our knowledge and pursue our passions. Let this acknowledgement invoke in all of us a call to action to uphold our treaty relationships and fulfill our duties to reconciliation.
