Eighth grade students in Mr. Gosse's science class tested out their paper airplanes in a friendly competition to see which airplane could fly the furthest distance! They designed and built two airplanes in class, then had to determine as a team which plane would fly the best using different angles and strategies during the launch.

Ms. Glassen's fourth grade class started their Friday off with a relaxing flashlight read! 🔦📖 #reading #flashlightread #fourthgrade #fridayfun #falconfriday #salemschoolfalcons

Tomorrow is our first Falcon Friday!

Raise your hand if we will see you at our Open House and Community Picnic tomorrow night?! 🙋‍♀️🙋🏽 Open House for grades 1 to 8 will run from 4 to 5:30pm. Rain or shine, the picnic will run from 5:30 to 6:30 and we have many fun Community Tables and Food Trucks planned!  If it rains, the Community Tables and the photo booth will be in the primary gym instead of outside, and the food trucks, fire truck, DARE car, bus and tractor will be outside in the 4K/5K lot just like last year. Bus information is also now available in SKYWARD and DTC will also have a bus and a table with information at the picnic tomorrow night! We cant wait to see our Falcon Families!🥰   

Our 4K and 5K Falcon students had their Open House tonight! They got to meet their teachers, check out the school, and take a bus ride to practice before the first day!😍

Welcome back to our amazing Salem Staff!! This morning we officially welcomed everyone back to school with a delicious Panera breakfast, the introduction of our wonderful new staff, and the celebration of our dedicated staff who have been with us for 10, 20, and 30 years!! The PTO also presented a generous donation to all of our teachers to use for the purchasing of new books, we are so thankful! Wishing our entire staff a great school year ahead!😍 #salemschoolfalcons #welcomeback #celebrations #salemstaffrocks

“Hi Salem Families! My name is Colleen Webster and I’m so excited to be a 4K Aide in the afternoon class this year! I live in Salem with my husband Brad, and our three kids - Liam (9), Logan (7), and Gianna (5). We love to hike and swim, travel to new adventures, watch our kids play football, baseball, basketball, soccer, and dance, and cheer for all of the Wisconsin teams, especially the Packers! I'm so looking forward to being a part of this amazing school team.”

Salem School is very excited to partner with the Kenosha County Health Center to offer a preventative dental program for all children K-5th grades, which is funded by WI Seal A Smile! 😁 This will be open to all of our families and will be done here at school on October 17th and 18th. In order for families to secure a time slot for their child(ren), they must complete a permission form and return it to school by September 16th. These forms will be available with your child's homeroom teacher at Open House Night! The goal of the Seal a Smile Program is to bring dental prevention services directly to children in the elementary schools in our Kenosha County community. Many children lack a dental home and access to dental care, including necessary prevention, hygiene, and oral health education services. The Seal-A-Smile program provides those needs as well as oral health assessments, dental sealants, and fluoride applications to teeth, from kindergarten through fifth grade – all at no cost to families.

“Hello, my name is Katheryn Schopp. Some of you might know me from last year when I worked in 4K as an aide. I’m very excited to be teaching middle school art this year! In 2021 I graduated from the University of Akron with a Studio Art degree. My concentrations are in Ceramics and Printmaking. I enjoy spending my free time with family and friends, making & collecting new art, sketching and swimming. I’m really looking forward to bringing my creativity and art magic to my students and the Salem community! 😊💛”
