Mi'kmaw Kina'matnewey Celebrates 42 High School Equivalency Graduates

May 28, 2024

This month we held a celebration for 42 adult students who successfully completed their High School Equivalency Exams! The graduates were invited to take part in a ceremony that was held in Halifax on May 7th, 2024. The grads came from almost all of our communities across the province along with their guests to have an opportunity to be recognized for all of the effort they put into achieving their High School diploma. This was the first time that we had such a large number of graduates and we are so very proud of each and every one of them.
