This week, my students all took a turn walking around the room and writing one kind thing on each of their classmates' hearts. These hearts will be displayed on our classroom door to remind each student that they are loved! This activity helps build confidence and a safe environment! - Ms. Smid
Traveling Falcon Award winner from December! Torri Poremba: Here is what Dan had to say: "Torri Poremba exemplifies incredible Falcon spirit in every way. As a dedicated paraprofessional, she is a constant reassuring and positive presence with students and staff alike. Her kindness is witnessed by anyone she meets and always with a pleasant greeting and smile throughout the building.
That is only part of the gifts Torri brings to Salem School. She is also the leader of the school PTO, organizing and managing events throughout the year. Countless hours of her time are given to the students, parents and community for the enjoyment of all. Also, the funds raised from the events have had a direct benefit for the students, teachers and staff. We are truly blessed for all you do and the effort you give for the benefit of so many people.
I am honored to pass the Traveling Falcon Award to a most deserving person. Your contributions are noticed and appreciated!"

Way to soar, Max! Your dedication inspires us all.

Last week, students in Grades 2-7 Spanish classes used the Super 7 verb "quiero" to write something they wanted for the holidays. Each student had a unique perspective on this, and it was great to be a part of the process. All of us at Salem wish you safe and enjoyable holidays!

The second graders in Mrs. Bruni's class loved creating pushpin art designs using toothpicks and hanging them on our classroom window. They also had an absolutely wonderful time designing and decorating graham cracker houses while listening to holiday music with an extra helper and former Salem student and Mrs. Bruni's son - Dylan. What memories we are making!

Last week, our middle school students had the option to sample Honeyfire Kitchen Chicken during lunch. Whitson's brought a fun, festive Pop-up Shop to the cafeteria so students could try a trending food theme. Whitson’s’ Simply Rooted® food philosophy, is focused on using ingredients that are locally sourced, all‐natural, organic or non‐GMO and minimally processed whenever possible. Students commented that the Honeyfire Kitchen Chicken sandwich was really good and a little spicy.
