Hello Wolf Pack,

We have officially reached the halfway point in our school year! Monday begins our 3rd quarter and fresh start for grades, assignments, and for many, new electives.

We will be reviewing PACK Expectations with our students next week. This will cover all expectations with an in-depth emphasis on school-appropriate language and the importance of reporting concerns to staff, including safety concerns, peer conflicts, bullying situations, etc. Mr. Larsen and Mrs. Hurst will be visiting classrooms to provide that common lesson and message to all of our wolf pack.

Fill the Truck Food Drive

It's the time of year, when all of our CVSD Middle School collaborate with Spokane Valley Partners to help our community in a big way. Beginning Monday, we will compete to "Fill the Truck" with donated non-perishable food items. Our 1st period classrooms will be competing to see who can bring in the most and earn the most points.

Point values are - ramen and tiny cans are 1/2 point, regular size cans are 1 point, and giant cans and peanut butter are 2 points.

Help us "Fill the Truck!"

Thank you!

PACK Leaders Ryan Libey, Tori Faber, and Lily McKay (not pictured) decorated this area near the school commons as Selkirk prepares for the month of February. The students decided that this area will be dedicated with a monthly theme as we move through the school year.

Thank you, Wolves!
