Seltice Chief School Wide Expectations
Our Seltice Leadership Team has developed school wide expectations.
Our goal is to create an environment that everyone has an equal opportunity to learn as much as possible and feel safe while doing so.
Our four Character Traits are focused on;
BEing Responsible, BEing Respectful, BEing Safe and BEing Kind.
Students were introduced to these after Christmas Break. Students and Teachers have embraced teaching and learning about these qualities. It has already positively impacted Seltice.
