Salem Families, Many community members have expressed their excitement that graduation will have less restrictive seating arrangements than we originally thought. We do want to make everyone aware that the ceremony will still be livestreamed for those who can not attend.

Salem Families, Due to updated guidance from the WCHD we are excited to be able to remove all seating restrictions from SHS graduation. However, all attendees must still wear a mask. Graduation is at 2:00 pm on Saturday 6/5/21. If you have any questions please contact SHS.

SHS/SMS athletes will need to have a 2021-22 physical on file with the athletic dept. by June 1 to participate in team practices/games this summer. Free physicals will NOT be offered this year on the recommendation of our ATC provider and other medical groups. With the extension given (due to Covid) most athletes have not had a physical in 2 years. It has been strongly recommended that athletes get a thorough physical during their wellness checks. LifeSpring Health Systems offers free physicals. Call 883-3095 to set an appointment. Ascension Medical Group is also offering $25 physicals or free physicals with a Health Check.

Congratulations to the SCS Staff Members of the Year. All of our amazing staff have put in a lot of work this year. However, these individuals were selected by their peers as the best of the best. Thank you for pursuing and expecting excellence of yourself and others.
