School Council Letter to the School Community
January 25, 2023
Dear members of the Selkirk Elementary School Community,
After a lot of discussions and much thought, the École Selkirk Elementary School Council did NOT pass a resolution for a referendum to join the First Nation School Board (FNSB). The vote was not unanimous. This decision does not mean we are not in support of the good work that is being done by Yukon First Nation Education Directorate or that joining the FNSB is not the right choice for our school community. It is important for the school community to access information about the FNSB and evidence from schools that have joined on the impact on a child’s learning and development. There is an opportunity for everyone to become involved in the conversation and we would like to encourage its growth. As school council members, we are committed to: Facilitating opportunities for school community members to learn about what it means to join the FNSB; Learning more about the impact on the schools that have joined and look forward to the evidence of the first year; and Engaging the community in meaningful discussion and learning about what this opportunity has to offer. We would like to build on the momentum that was generated from the public meeting on January 24, and actively continue to support this conversation within our community while people are asking questions and seeking information. We are committed to helping organize events where this discussion and learning can take place. We welcome our school community to approach us to share their views. Please feel free to email school council at selkirkschoolcouncil@gmail.com or attend an upcoming meeting.
Thank you for your support as we have our children’s best interests in mind with every decision we make.
