Selkirk Community Sense of Belonging Survey

Thank you to those of you who already completed this!!!

As communicated last week, one of the main priorities at Selkirk, and across CVSD, is to 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.
