SALEM SAINTS WEEKLY: March 25th Edition

April 1st, 2021

SALEM SPRING GAMES

Our traditional Field Days for 1st-4th and 5th-8th grade have been canceled.

We could not let another spring go by without some campus-wide fun. So, we will be hosting our very own Salem Spring Games!

May 14th for K-3rd

May 21st for 4th-7th

We have set aside a rain date for either/both for Monday, May 24th.

(PLEASE NOTE THE DATE CHANGES FOR THIS NEW EVENT. We have updated the school calendar as of the sending of this email.)

Our 8th grader will help facilitate the events and run the concession stand. We are inviting 2 adults per student on campus to join us for the day.

More details to come!

BOOK FAIR INFO

A NOTE ABOUT THE BOOK FAIR...

The Book Fair has begun! The online opportunity to purchase books is open.

We ask for your continued partnership as our students select books, both online

and during the onsite book fair next Tuesday and Wednesday.

We have no input as to the book offerings online, but will do our best to

remove books that are inconsistent with our values from the onsite book fair.

If you should come across a book that you find controversial, please let Mrs. Schatte know.

We will continue to evaluate our relationship with Scholastic, as we have the last 20 years. We want to offer great books that encourage our students to read!
