Calling all Selwyn Dads!  On Friday, April 21, we will hold Eagle Dads Volunteer Day.  We hope our Dads will have an outstanding presence at Selwyn by helping with morning carpool, serving as lunchroom monitors, helping with garden tasks, and more!  Plus, we need one fun dad to dress up as the Selwyn Eagle.  Click here to view the full list and to sign up!  Dads may also check their child’s class calendar ( click here and go to the "class pages" tab) to see if there is a need to help a special area teacher.  Come join in the fun, and help make this a great tradition at Selwyn!

Join us for a spring spruce up on Sunday, April 23 at 1 pm! Lots of helping hands are needed to pull weeds, pick up trash, spread pine needles, and plant flowers. Grab your work gloves and come out for some campus beautification!  

Selwyn collected more than $350 worth of Box Tops in February.  The second grade submitted the most - more than 800 box tops - and will get extra recess as their prize. Thanks to everyone who saved, cut, and counted.  Please save Box Tops over the summer for next fall’s submission.

The state department has been working with math content experts across North Carolina to review and revise the K-8 math standards.  The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction Mathematics Section staff have developed a survey to seek public input on the second draft of the state’s revised K-8 Mathematics Standards. The staff is seeking feedback from district administrators, teachers, parents, and the community on the recommended changes. The draft standards are available online here for your review prior to completing the survey here.  The survey deadline is 5 pm on April 20.  Thank you for providing input on the standards our students will be charged to achieve.
