ATTENTION ALL SALEM FAMILIES!

SPTO is beginning a new mentoring program-"SALEM CONNECTIONS"- to welcome our new families to the school.  We need families who currently have students at Salem and we will link you with a new family.  The goal is to have the experienced families introduce themselves and be available for questions as they arise.  Invite the new family to chapel/church and school events so you are a familiar face to them.  Simple!  Easy!  Fun!  Please consider being a part of this new venture!  We are hoping this will strengthen and enlarge our Salem Family. Please see MacKenzie Hanson 651-815-1773 or Julie Ross 763-234-5759.

SPTO Meeting dates have been added to the school calendar for the year. They will be held on the 3rd Thursday of every month at 6:30 pm except in October which will instead be held on the 25th. There will be no meeting in December. Please contact Bonnie Richter if you have any questions on the group or the schedule for the meetings (spto.president@salemlutheran.org).

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
