Aba Wathtech!
​
I am excited to be taking on the role of Principal at Mini Thni Community School. Having worked in the community for almost 25 years I am grateful for the opportunity to work with children and grandchildren of previous students.
My hope is to use my experience, the relationships that I have built, along with the knowledge I have gained, to make school a positive and fun learning experience for our kids. As a mother myself I see the value in keeping our kids safe and equipping them with skills to solve problems, ask questions, and to think in big picture ways.
​
We are lucky to have teachers and staff who bring their passions to school every day to share with students and it is an honour for all of us to learn from the wisdom that Stoney children, parents and Elders provide.
​
I am grateful for the trust that you put into sending your children to school everyday and I will continue to do the best job I can to make MTCS the very best it can be.
​
Isniyes.

Our History
​
Mînî Thnî Community School opened in 1984 on the Stoney Reserve. It was named after the townsite of Morley located on the Stoney Reserve. The name Morley refers to the Methodist minister Dr. William Morley Punshon who was one of the first ministers to encounter the Stoney people in 1840's.
​
Mînî Thnî Community School is funded by Indian and Northern affairs Canada, but follows the Alberta learning curriculum and Alberta School Act. The school reports to Alberta Learning which certifies the school if it determines that the appropriate provincial standards have been met. Therefore all course, certificates and diplomas from Morley Community School are fully recognized anywhere in Canada. The school is required to employ only Alberta Learning certified teachers for teaching positions.
