Principal's Message

Welcome to Selkirk!  We are a community oriented school of 320 students serving families in Riverdale and the downtown area of Whitehorse.   A dual track school offering both French Immersion and English program options for students, we enjoy excellent facilities, staff and resources to support academics, instructional technology, active sports programs and the arts.  At Selkirk, we strive to offer a full and balanced education program for our students.

As a collaborative school community we continue to build shared capacity to provide culturally relevant programs and learning experiences that support the values and learning needs of the students and families we serve. In doing so, we recognize the importance of working together to develop the relationships, mutual caring and trust that best support student learning and achievement.

To all new and returning families, I extend a warm invitation to join our community of reflective, life-long learners.  I look forward to our meeting and working together, and I encourage you to visit our website and the school to find out about our programs, new initiatives and opportunities to enjoy an active involvement in school affairs.

Sincerely,
Peter Gubbe
