About Our School

Nusdeh Whesulh Elementary School is a new Indigenous led independent school in Quesnel, BC, operated by ECHEN Healing Society. Our school is guided by Binygunchagh Deyen, which means Going Home in a Good Way. This philosophy is rooted in connection to the land and in whole human development.
