🌟Please help us welcome Jake Laforest to our Falcon Family!
"My name is Jake Laforest and I am ecstatic to be joining the Salem Falcon Family! I will be teaching 6th grade ELA and Social Studies and cannot wait to learn alongside students while watching them grow throughout the course of the school year.
This past spring, I graduated from UW Milwaukee with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary and Middle School Education and previously from UW Oshkosh in spring of 2020 with a bachelor’s degree in Radio-TV-Film. As it relates to my educational experience, I have spent a great deal of time in 1st, 4th, 7th and 8th grade classrooms as well as working in a daycare setting for about 2 years.
In my free time, I love writing, recording and playing my own music as well as getting exercise by playing basketball or hiking with friends and family. I cannot wait to put my knowledge and passion into action as I have prepared by working diligently with each of my UW Milwaukee placements to finally finding my new home in Salem School!"
🌟Please help us welcome Samantha Platz to our Falcon Family! She will be joining us as one of our Speech Language Pathologists!
"My name is Samantha Platz, and I am very excited to be joining the Falcon Family as one of your new Speech Language Pathologists. I was born and raised in Kenosha/Pleasant Prairie and am a proud graduate of Tremper High School. My time as a student-athlete at Tremper led to playing collegiate volleyball at both Northern Michigan University and Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. Following the completion of my B.A., I pursued an enriching graduate program at the University of Northern Colorado.
Wisconsin called me back home, and it’s here that I’ve built a life with my loving husband and our two wonderful daughters, Savanna and Vivienne. When I’m not immersed in the world of speech pathology, you’ll find me cherishing family moments, playing volleyball or getting lost in a good book. With 13 years of diverse experience as an SLP—spanning Illinois and Wisconsin school districts, private clinics, in-home therapy, Early Intervention, and hospital settings—I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative power of speech. Observing my students’ progress and celebrating their achievements is what truly ignites my passion and dedication to making a positive impact in their academic and personal journeys. I’m excited to embark on this next chapter with you all while continuing to make a difference in the lives of our students!"

🌟Please help us welcome Ann Jevitz to our Falcon Family! She will be joining our 6th grade team this year.
"Hi! My name is Mrs. Jevitz! This will be my 11th year teaching and I am so excited to join the Salem School family. My husband T.J. and our 3 children, Alayna, who is 6, Colton, who is 4, and Jase, who is 2, moved to Wisconsin from Illinois 2 years ago. Before moving to Wisconsin, I taught in New Lenox, Illinois for 9 years where I spent my time teaching Math, Science and Social Studies. I spent my first year in Wisconsin at home with our boys, but missed the classroom so much that I taught 5th Grade last school year at St. Joe’s in Kenosha. Teaching 5th and 6th graders the subjects of Math and Science is my absolute favorite. I’ve heard wonderful things about Salem, so I could not pass up the opportunity to teach my favorite subjects, as a 6th grade teacher, at Salem for the 2024-2025 school year! I am very excited to see what this year has in store for all of us and cannot wait to see what the future looks like for myself and our kiddos as we begin our school experiences at Salem! Go Falcons!"
