The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) has approved Selkirk's 180-day School Year Waiver renewal which is the process used to support a 4-day school week. Our current waiver expires at the end of the 2022-23 school year. The newly approved waiver will allow Selkirk School District to continue a 4-day school week through the 2025-2026 school year. We hope this model continues to support the needs of families. Attendance and achievement data are two factors that are tracked and used in support of the 4-day school week application. Thank you to our community for continuing to support your local schools through levies, volunteer efforts, and other student support. Thank you to families for your partnership and striving to minimize school absences! Thank you to teachers and support staff for continuing to offer a strong academic program that challenges and prepares our students for post-secondary opportunities! Thank you to students for working hard, believing in a growth mindset, and making the most of the opportunities offered at Selkirk!

Students learned about what is involved in producing the delicious meats that are featured in our burgers, stews, and burritos.
