Selkirk School believes in the importance of a diverse education. Because of this strong belief in nurturing the whole child, we have supplemented our curriculum with highly qualified specialty teachers within the community. Ranging from yoga, dance, and music. The school also brings other important community helpers to speak to the children, including a local dentist, nurse, Sandpoint Fire & Police, Fish & Game, and community farmers.
