Hello Wolf Pack Families,

This week we began our 2nd quarter here at Selkirk. Most students experience some adjustments to their schedule. We took the opportunity to go over school-wide PACK Expectations with our students, reminding them choices they can make to help them be successful during their school day. If you are interested in reading over those expectation, they are linked here: School-wide PACK Expectation for Q2.

One of main priorities at Selkirk, and across CVSD, so help create a strong sense of belonging for all students, staff, and our community. We would love to know how we are doing with this. Please take a moment to complete our brief survey. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
