A huge thank you to David Blankenship for bringing the old tiger back home to the high school! This special piece of our school’s history now stands proud once again, thanks to his generosity and community spirit.

Thank you to Chris Olds, former Great Lakes fish biologist and the US Forrest Service group who visited our Fish & Wildlife Class. Students learned about native fish—and even got hands-on with dissections!

A group of SHS students got the privilege to visit the St. Louis Kaplan Feldman Holocaust Museum on May 30th. This trip was provided for by a mini-grant from the Salem Public Schools Foundation.
According to English teacher Eric Myers, "The grant allowing us to visit the Holocaust Museum in Saint Louis helped bring to life the effects of the Holocaust for the students since we read the memoir Night this year which detailed the life of a 15-year-old during the Holocaust. The tour guides stayed with the students and provided valuable information to the students. Many interactive displays allowed students to immersify themselves in the history. All the students were respectful of the history and content of the experience and most participated in the interactive displays, enthusiastically. They agreed that it added to their knowledge and experience of the Holocaust."
Thank you Salem Public Schools Foundation for a valuable trip for our students.
