In June 2011, Tyee Solutions Society reporter Katie Hyslop travelled to British Columbia's Adams Lake Reserve to visit Chief Atahm Immersion as part of her series on Successful Practices in Aboriginal Education. You can see those articles here: http://thetyee.ca/Series/2011/09/07/Successful-First-Nations-Education/
With images from Hyslop and freelance photographer Marvin Beatty (http://www.marvinbeatty.ca/) and audio from interviews conducted with faculty and elders from the school, this slideshow gives you a taste of the blend of Secwepemc culture, language, and history with K-7 education offered at Chief Atahm.
