Salem Community Schools

Good afternoon Salem Families! We wanted to let everyone know that Monday, February 21st, will be a virtual day. This is a make-up day for the snow/ice day we experienced on February 3rd. February 3rd would have been virtual that day, but SCS decided to cancel due to the threat of ice. SCS has to make up the day by state law. Since it would have been virtual the decision was made to make the make-up day as a virtual day too.
