Attention!

Salem Community Schools is thankful to have a dedicated Athletic Director who oversees our sports programs. Mr. Hank Weedin has 30-plus years experience in education and spends a lot of time at school supporting student athletes and making sure everything is running smoothly at home events. We are thankful for all he does!

Join us as we celebrate our students and the arts in our corporation-wide Night of the Arts event next Monday, March 3, from 6-8 p.m. in the Randy Johnson Fieldhouse at the high school. Artwork will be on display and performances will be held by the choir and band. We hope to see you there!

Due to drifting and icy road conditions, we will be on a synchronous virtual learning schedule tomorrow, Monday, February 17th. Students should log in to their classes at the scheduled times and follow their virtual learning expectations. Teachers will be available online to support students throughout the day. Stay safe, and thank you for your cooperation!

Hey SHS Class of 2038....we are ready for you! Kindergarten registration will be held at Bradie Shrum Elementary School on April 3! Please see the flyer below for more information!

UPDATE 10am: Our phones are now operating normally! Thank you for your patience. We are currently experiencing an issue with our phone system. If you need to reach us this morning, please use email or mesage us. Calls coming into our schools are not connecting but we can call out so we can return calls as needed. We will update when service is back to normal.

The health centers at SCS are seeing an increase in seasonal illnesses including Flu A, strep, and other illnesses. While attendance is vital in order to get the best classroom experience, there are instances where students/staff should stay home. Along with increased cleaning protocols at school, we need your help! Please monitor your child's symptoms and do not send them to school sick. Stay home until symptoms are better, fever free WITHOUT meds for 24 hours, and no vomiting or diarrhea in 24 hours. Remind students the importance of washing their hands with SOAP and WATER and not just using sanitizer. Cleaning jackets, hats, shoes, and/or anything brought to school are all best practice! If you have any questions regarding sending your student to school please reach out to the school nurse, Mrs. Bowers at 812-883-3700 ext 4022.
