The Pius X Mission Resident School for Native Children operated in Skagway for 27 years, impacting the lives of its students, their families and their home communities. Its legacy has had lasting effects.

PiusXSkagway.com has been created by Skagway Traditional Council as a resource for understanding the history of the Pius X Mission and its place within the broader context of Native boarding schools in North America.

This website is a step toward remembering, educating, and sharing the truth about the Pius X Mission and the broader history of Native boarding schools. We invite you to explore the content here, reflect on the history, and engage with the resources.
