Education

Fort McKay First Nation believes that education is the foundation of ensuring a healthy and sustainable community for future generations.

Fort McKay First Nation students are dispersed throughout Fort McKay, Fort McMurray, surrounding areas and across Canada – there are approximately 230 Fort McKay students from Head Start to Post-Secondary. This web page is intended to unite dispersed students, prospective students, parents and community members with general information. Fort McKay values Education and we are proud to invest in our students, the leaders of tomorrow.

Current operations of the Education Department include:

  • Elsie Fabian School
  • Fort McKay E-Learning Centre:
    A Grade 7 to 12 outreach high school intended for both school-aged and adult upgrading students.
  • Post-Secondary Support Program:
    A program to support Fort McKay First Nation Band Members who are pursuing higher education at an accredited Post-Secondary Institution.
