Salem School is excited to announce that 4K/5K Enrollment is coming SOON!
Salem offers both a full day and half day 4K program for students 4-years-old on or before September 1, 2023. Students, age 5, on or before September 1, 2023, can enroll for our full-day Kindergarten program. Students currently enrolled in Salem's 4K program for the 2022-2023 school year do not have to enroll for Kindergarten.
Enrollment will begin January 23, 2023 from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m, Monday through Friday, in the school's office located off of AH. The student's original birth certificate and proof of residency are required in order to enroll. Acceptable forms of proof of residency include a deed, current rental agreement signed by both parties, current tax statement, or a utility bill (gas, electric, water or sewer) within the last 30 days.
Please keep in mind that your choice for full day vs. half day 4K is on a first come, first served basis. Your choice can be made as soon as you fill out the required enrollment forms and show the birth certificate and proof of residency.

Salem School is VERY excited to announce the launch of our new ESports program!
In conjunction with our Strategic Planning initiatives, Salem has taken its first step into the world of Esports. This program will provide middle school students with an extremely sought-after extracurricular opportunity, while simultaneously building upon essential skill sets, such as teamwork, communication, and leadership. This is an amazing opportunity for our District, as we are blazing the unpaved trail and leading the charge for schools in our area. This program will be built upon further as our students continue their journey into high school and beyond!
Who can participate in this program?
For the 2022-2023 school year, students must be in middle school (grades 6 through 8) to participate in the Salem Esports Program. Students are also subject to the same requirements that exist for sports and other club activities.
For more information, and to sign your student up, please visit our ESports page: https://www.salem.k12.wi.us/esports
Sign up ends 1/13/2023.

Ms. Simmons and her kindergarten students completed their Holidays around the World🌎 themed project today! Students "visited" seven countries and learned about the customs and traditions of each one. They completed an extension activity for each country and placed it in their "suitcase" as a souvenir. They made dreidels, nativities, St. Lucia crowns, tannenbaums, kinaras, dutch shoes, and poinsettias as souvenirs. They got a stamp from each country visited on their passports. They had a lot of fun on their travels!
Students in Mrs. Krolow's Underground Library Club had a great time at their holiday celebration last night! They used discarded books to create beautiful holiday shapes! 🎄🎁❄️
