Grandparents' Day News

By -

Dear Salem Parent,
    Information is being sent home with the youngest in the family for our Grandparents' Day which is being held on September 27th. The two invitations that are included are for you to mail or give to a grandparent or an adult of your choosing who your child would like to accompany them for the day. There are more invitations available in the school office or you can print more from the link below. Talk with your child’s teacher if your child would like a senior from our congregation to accompany them. That could be arranged as well!

   Please fill out the green registration form and return to the school office by September 20! The registration form is also included below if you need an extra. Please return this form even if your child does not have a guest for the day. Complete and send a payment for any lunches that your guest will be having and include their full name on the registration for easier identification. Also, note if your child will be leaving before lunch that day. We will need to know who will be picking your child up if it is not you or the grandparent attending. School is dismissed at 12:00 pm that day so please make special arrangements for pickup since there will not be busing available at noon. Morning bus will run as normal.

   One last request! This day requires a lot of parent volunteers to make the day go smoothly.
If you are able to help that day or for our preparations before, please stop by the school office and sign up for a volunteer spot or sign up online below. We appreciate any and all help!

We are looking forward to another great Grandparents’ Day!

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
