The High School in Cambridge Bay



One of the tourist attractions in Cambridge Bay is the High School which has a wonderful cultural centre in the library.

While I was there I was encouraged to look around and was given strict instruction not to photograph any of the children. The centre had some interactive displays, a small theatre that spoke about the history of Cambridge Bay and the Inuit culture.



The High School houses about 200 students from grade 7 to 12. Although the design seemed somewhat unique with the circular exterior and an open concept inside, it was not different than any other - students playing basketball in the gym and studying in the library.

I toured the facility for an hour and so enjoyed the experience.
