School Council

Note from School Council 2021-2022
We hope you all had an amazing summer and are ready for a new year at Selkirk.
Our first meeting will be on Monday, September 13th at 6:30pm in the library. You can also join via Zoom and the link is on the school website under the School Council heading. We ask that masks are worn at the meeting because social distancing is difficult to maintain.
We are excited for some new ideas that have come forward such as a sub-committee on school health (see below) and continuing work on the new parking lot at the back of the school. If you have anything you’d like to discuss with Council please feel free to email us atselkirkschoolcouncil@gmail.com.
There are some new teachers who are joining us this year and we are grateful to have them along with all of our returning staff. Thank you all for what you do with and for our children!
Hope to see and talk to you all soon,
Selkirk Elementary School Council

Would you like to be involved???
Parents! Looking for a way to make a positive contribution to the school this year? Do you have an interest in promoting healthy school environments? The SES school council is seeking parent participation on a sub-committee that will focus on school health – especially on promoting social, physical and nutrition environments that support healthy learning. The exact role and function of the committee will be determined by the members, but with so many new expectations on teachers and administrators these days the committee will focus on offering support rather than creating additional pressures.
Please contact yukonparker@yahoo.ca if you would like to volunteer, learn more, or you have a school health-related issue you would like to discuss.
