Community Committee

Champagne/Aishihik First Nations was the first to sign a Community Committee Agreement with the First Nation School Board in Yukon.

The St. Elias Community School (SECS) Community Committee is the governing body for the K-12 school in Dakwä̀kä̀da. Together, they share authorities and responsibilities over the management and operation of the school with the First Nation School Board.
