Esports club will start meeting the week of the 2nd through the 5th of October.
In conjunction with our Strategic Planning initiatives, Salem has taken its first step into the world of Esports. This program will provide students with an extremely sought-after extracurricular opportunity, while simultaneously building upon essential skill sets, such as teamwork, communication, and leadership. This is an amazing opportunity for our District, as we are blazing the unpaved trail and leading the charge for schools in our area. This program will be built upon further as our students continue their journey into high school and beyond.
