COVID Guideline Clarification

By -

 Hello Salem Family,

The School Board wanted me to clarify one aspect of the change in protocol due to the CDC and MDH's new guidelines. 

If a class has an exposure and needs to quarantine, the whole class will be out for 10 days. We encourage students to still get tested, but it won't allow them to come back before the 10 day period in this situation. This is so we don't have some students coming back early and others waiting for the 10 days. This allows the teachers to effectively teach your students online or in-person and devote their entire attention to one or the other. 

If it is a separate situation that doesn't involve the entire classroom, the 7 day negative test protocol can be used. (If they get tested negative, they can come back after 7 days.)

Thank you for all of your support during this time as the rules keep changing. We continue to pray for our families and thank God for the time we have each and every day to be together.

Next Year Update I know there is a lot of uncertainty regarding the next school year and what it will entail. As we continue to wait for updates from the CDC and our Government, I wanted to share with you the plan for Salem as of now. Salem is planning on having in-person school starting August 31st. We are currently creating a plan for what this will look like with the faculty and the School Board. We are planning on sending the plan out in the middle of July. We also continue to work on plans to go to Remote Learning again if need be. We want you to know that our primary plan is to have in-person school. Through all of this uncertainty, it is important to remember that we have a God who does not change. He has seen the entire plan of this pandemic and will use it for our good. This pandemic has created times that are hard for us to trust in His plan with all that our country is enduring. I pray you can find comfort in God'sWord and know that he loves and has a plan for eac...

Middle School Ski Field Trip—Inclement Weather Plans

By -
Dear parents, we are keeping an eye on the weather for tomorrow. In case our school day is canceled or we have a late start due to inclement weather, we will postpone the ski trip and try to reschedule with Afton Alps for a later date. We will let our chaperones know as soon as possible so they can make plans. Refunds can be issued if a rescheduled date does not work for chaperones. If we are unable to reschedule, refunds will be issued. In the event of a late start, our middle school students will have a regular day of school (beginning later, of course). https://salemsaintsmn.blogspot.com/2018/01/bad-weather-closing-reminder.html
