Hybrid Learning Plan (A/B days)
October 2, 2020 -- The Board of Education approved a hybrid learning plan (A/B days) for grades 6-12 at Wednesday's meeting, giving administration the discretion to determine when to implement, and when to return to seated classes. The motivation behind this recommendation was to keep our students in school as long as we possibly can and avoid a full school closure.. The number of students and staff being quarantined, particularly at the high school level (grades 9-12) has been very high and is disruptive to the educational process. In order to reduce the number of students in the building, and therefore allow students and staff to socially distance and avoid quarantining, we will be transitioning to a hybrid learning plan for students in grades 9-12 beginning Friday, October 9. Our plan allows us to implement at the MS level, but there are several issues we need to address before that decision is made.
High school students will be divided into two groups. Students in group A will be in seated classes Monday and Wednesday, with virtual learning Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Students in Group B will be in seated classes Tuesday and Thursday, with virtual learning Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Detailed information will be disseminated at the high school level, but the plan itself can be found here.
The hybrid plan also includes restrictions on athletic events in grades 7-12, with limited capacity at events, through the use of vouchers. Details of this plan can be found here.
We are appreciative of our parents' and students' patience as we do our very best to ensure student and staff safety, while still providing an in-person educational experience to the greatest degree possible. Parents are encouraged to contact their child's building administrator if you have any questions.

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.
