Kindness knows no bounds! 💜🩵 Thanks to Kendra Smith, Charlotte's aunt, the Rock the Kindness project made its way to Salem School this week, right into her son Conor’s 3rd grade classroom! Students painted kindness rocks in honor of Charlotte and Kyra, two incredible girls from Libertyville whose legacy of love and courage continues to ripple outward. These rocks will be placed around western Kenosha County to keep their spirit alive!🎨 #RockTheKindness #KindnessLegacy #CharlotteAndKyra #SalemSchoolFalcons #SpreadKindness

Eighth grade students visited the Illinois Holocaust Museum in Skokie last week. During their visit, they explored historical documents and artifacts from the Holocaust. They also listened to a second-generation speaker share the powerful story of his father, who survived 21 months in Auschwitz III. The speaker encouraged students to take a stand against hate by speaking up and being upstanders when they witness injustice.

Remember, tomorrow is a half day for students, with dismissal at 11:30am. #AlohaDay #CountdownToSummer #ABCCountdown #SchoolSpirit #FalconPride #Salemschoolfalcons

Ms. Sturino and Mrs. McGrath proudly showed off their temporary tattoos—each one carefully chosen by their students! These tattoos weren’t just for fun; they were a celebration of hard work and determination. Students earned tattoos for their teachers based on their MAPS testing progress: raising their score earned 1 tattoo, meeting their goal earned 2 tattoos, and surpassing their goal earned 3 tattoos. Fourth graders rose to the challenge, and many went above and beyond. We are so proud of their effort, focus, and commitment to success!

💙 Our third grade teachers are leading the way and showing their Falcon pride for Falcon Day—decked out in their Salem gear! Don’t forget to join the fun tomorrow—wear your Falcon gear or blue and white to celebrate with us! #SalemSchoolFalcons #FalconDay #ThirdGradeSpirit #BlueWhite #ProudToBeAFalcon #ABCCountdown
