Between Two Worlds

In the latest edition of WoFo Radio, our erstwhile reporter, Michael Kalinowski, interviews TJ Skalski.  TJ Skalski is Principal of The Mother Earth's Children's Charter School (MECCS), the first Indigenous charter school in Canada. Originally from the Blood Reserve and raised in southern Alberta, she eventually left to complete her education, including a Masters of Education degree.  Surrounded by Mother Nature, MECCS recently moved from Wabamun into the former Saint John's School of Alberta, located 35 minutes southwest of Stony Plain, AB, on the banks of the North Saskatchewan River near Genessee. A Program Showcase on MECCS can be found in the January/February 2010 issue of Exchange.
