How did metis people get educated?

Metis people were traditionally educated through informal learning within their community, such as from elders, through storytelling, and participating in cultural activities. With colonization, Metis children were often sent to residential schools, where they were forced to assimilate into European culture and were forbidden to practice their own traditions. Today, efforts are being made to revitalize and promote Metis culture and education through community-led initiatives and schools.
