Details on Salem's Fine Arts Gala on April 12

By -
Salem Lutheran School’s Fine Arts Gala (formerly known as Education Night) will be held on Thursday, April 12, from 6:00-7:30 p.m. The event will start at 6:00 pm in the church sanctuary with an overview of the evening and performances by the Salem School Band and the Jubilate Choir.  The rest of the evening attendees will be free to visit their choice of exhibits. Class art projects that represent the style of each class’s chosen featured artist will be located in the gym.  A display of art projects that students created outside of school will be on display in the Fellowship Hall. Visitors may participate in an art "make and take" activity for younger students in the gym, or participate in a "make and take" activity for older students in the 3rd/4th-grade room. Music performances by piano students or small ensembles by choir and band students will be in the conference room. People will be able to move at their own pace to each location.

We are hoping to include art displays from members of the congregation and school families at this Fine Arts Gala.  Examples would be, but not limited to, painting, sketches, sculptures, pottery, quilts, stained glass, woodworking, or metal working. If you are interested in displaying your artwork at the Fine Arts Gala, contact the school office (school.office@salemlutheran.org  651-439-7831).  Please tell us what type of artwork you would like to display and its approximate size so that we can plan for space we will need.  The artwork may be brought to school on Wednesday, April 11 from 3:45-4:45 pm, or Thursday morning between 9:30-11:00 am.  Let us know if you need a time other than that to bring your artwork. If you have your own easels or display stands, that would help us set up the artwork also.  Thank you!

Update on Stillwater School Board's Proposed Change of Start Times

By -
This is an update on Stillwater School Board’s proposal to change school start times in 2019-2020. The Stillwater School Board met last night and one of the topics on the agenda was the proposed changes in starting time to accommodate a later start for the high school students.  This change in start time for the high school would affect the start and end time for Salem students.  In the proposals presented last night, Salem would start school between 9:15 and 9:40 a.m., and end between 3:45 and 4:10 p.m. Jane Grobe and I spoke on how starting later and getting out later would affect our students’ learning and how it would disrupt family schedules. The middle school, where some of our students participate in after-school extra-curricular activities, would have their school day ending at 2:00.  That would mean if students left Salem for after-school activities, they could miss over 2 hours of instruction to be at the start of the middle school activities. The board’s discussion on th
