🧡🖤 **A DAY TO REMEMBER AT SELFRIDGE PUBLIC SCHOOL** 🖤🧡 (5th & 6th Grade)
Today was one of those days that reminds us **why we do what we do.**
We were honored to welcome **Ricky White** to Selfridge Public School for a powerful presentation built around a message that every student deserves to hear:
**EVERY CHILD MATTERS.**
Ricky spoke from the heart about **respect, belonging, understanding, kindness, and the responsibility we all have to make sure every child knows they are important.**
Our students, staff, families, and community members came together for **Every Child Matters March**. Walking side by side was a powerful reminder that we are stronger when we stand together for our children.
🧡 **Orange Shirt Day** is a day to honor Indigenous children who were forced to attend residential and boarding schools and to remember those who never returned home. The orange shirt represents the message that **“Every Child Matters”** and reminds us of the importance of truth, healing, respect, and making sure every child feels valued and supported.
Every child deserves to know:
🧡 **You are seen.**
🧡 **You are heard.**
🧡 **You are valued.**
🧡 **You belong.**
🧡 **You matter.**
Today wasn’t just another school activity. It was a chance to listen, reflect, come together, and remind our students that **they matter—not just today, but every single day.**
A heartfelt thank you to **Ricky White** for sharing your message with our students and staff, this was such a meaningful day.
**This is what school is about. This is what community is about. This is what family is about.**
