Although Orange Shirt Day is on Sept. 30, the LKDSB has chosen to commemorate Orange Shirt Day on Sept. 28, to honour the survivors of residential schools as well as those children and young people who never returned home. Staff and students are encouraged to wear orange and use this day as a catalyst to encourage learning and understanding about the residential school system and the impacts that system has had on First Nations, Metis, and Inuit people and communities.
