We hope this letter finds you well. As Ecole Selkirk Elementary’s 2023/2024 social-emotional team, we wanted to introduce ourselves:
This is my 5th year as Selkirk’s fulltime school counsellor, and I am grateful to be a part of this amazing and dynamic community! I have a Master of Education in Supporting and Enhancing Children’s Mental Health, and I am in the final stretch of my Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology. I am passionate about developmentally-responsive education, and I am a certified trainer in the Neurosequential Model. When I am not at school, I can be found chasing my family around the Riverdale Trails! I am looking forward to reconnecting with returning Selkirk families, and to meeting new Coyotes
