A Note from Principal Harris:

I am looking forward to seeing parents on Friday, November 8 to learn more about the new reading program, Expeditionary Learning (EL). I will also address information in regards to Title IX and how it correlates to Rule 27 of the Student Code of Conduct Book. See you Friday!

Celebrate Your Child's Art

Square One Art has partnered with Selwyn to create a unique opportunity to celebrate your child’s artistic accomplishments while raising much needed funds for the school.

All orders must be turned in by Wednesday, November 13. (No late orders can be accepted.) Together, we can help support Selwyn, build your child’s self-esteem, and create lasting keepsakes from your child’s artistic a chievements.

Health and Wellness Tip
 
How much physical activity is your child getting each day? While the weather is still pleasant it is a great time to get them moving! If you need some ideas of ways to keep them active, challenge them to do a “Move Challenge” where they swap screen time for move time. Ideas include standing up to do homework, playing a family game outside like kick the can, go for a bike ride with a friend, or walk backwards around the block.
