All District High School Concert ChoirSalem Senior High 2021 Art CalendarsDecember 14, 2020 -- They are IN! The 2021 Art Calendars are in and are ready for purchase. Thanks to the Salem News for printing them this year! For the past eighteen years, Salem High School art students have shared the beauty of our local landmarks and life in the Ozarks through selected drawings in our annual calendar. By doing this, we wish to showcase the work of these students, and encourage artists of all ages to pursue their love of drawing the landscapes and people that make up our heritage.
This calendar cover, drawn by Lara Stevens, features Michael Helm, a well-known and much-loved local artist, volunteer, and teacher. Helm was born on September 20, 1958 in St. Louis, Missouri. He decided to move to Salem in 1998, where he would later join the Spring Creek Artisans and Arts Rolla. During Helm's time in Salem, he would create logos and murals of local businesses, sets for plays, and would teach art classes. Later he would find himself working as a paraprofessional, from Dec. 2007 until his passing in 2020, with the Salem R-80 school district. Helm was not only a local artist around the area, but was also a well-known volunteer, most notably as Santa for the annual Trees and Trains exhibit in Salem. Helm passed away January 4, 2020 in Salem at the age of 61, leaving a legacy for the Ozarks to be passed on for generations. We appreciate all the people and businesses who purchase this calendar to help support our group and allow us to share the cherished history of this small town. Calendars are available for sale at The Salem News, The Salem Public Library, and the Salem High School via any of the individual art students for $10 each. This year's artists include: Lara Stevens, Allison Parker-Lewis, Nathan Pyle, Alivia Faith LaJoie, Rachel Sheffield, Faith Pace, Jordan Schneider, Selena Hall, Wyatt Thomas, Kyra Oby, Macey Jarrett, Dylan Seabaugh, Ethan Wilson-Webber, and Mickayla Schlicker. Art instructor: Tana Kettner. UE Annual Food Drive Collection
November 23, 2020 -- The Fourth Annual Food Drive Collection at the Salem Upper Elementary School ended on November 18th. The collection this year was done as a grade level competition. The ounces of each donated item was used as the points earned. A collection box for each grade was placed at the front of the school for easy drop off each day. A total of 13,093 ounces of food was collected from November 4th through November 18th. The grade level with the highest number of points will be rewarded with a 'hat day' for their grade only. Second grade was the winner in this year's collection.
This year's food collection is being donated to His Place in Salem, MO. Our donation will help complete some of their Thanksgiving baskets and be used for their food pantry. A huge thank you goes out to all the students for carrying the items to school and the parents and all the other people who donated the food.
