Ermineskin Elementary School is proud to offer a quality Nêhiyawewin education to the children of Maskwacis. We serve approximately 470 students who reside on the Ermineskin, Samson, Montana, and Louis Bull Reserves.
We are in every essence a “Cree Community School”. It is our goal at Ermineskin Elementary School to provide a quality education that nurtures our Cree language and culture by providing effective instruction, meaningful experiences, and the opportunity for our children to develop a strong sense of Nêhiyawewin identity.
We are proud of our school and believe we are the beacon of hope that strives to build strong Cree citizens, leaders who empower others, and students who are engaged in their learning and their community.

- Intergenerational trauma still greatly impacts our children today.
- Loss of language = loss of culture = loss of identity = loss of confidence = loss of pride
- Our children are exceptional, brilliant, and deserving.
- We needed a common language to ground everyone.
- Goal setting was instrumental in creating this change.
