To kick off their shapes unit, Ms. Kennedy’s first grade students explored all the ways shapes can be sorted—by color, size, and shape! 🔴 Through hands-on learning and discovery, they had fun identifying patterns and organizing shapes in different ways.🔷

Mr. Rich Witt, our beloved honorary Salem greeter, now has a custom Falcon sign for his window—designed just for him by former Falcon student Savanna Briggs! 🎨
For 11 years, Mr. Witt has waved to students, families, and passersby, spreading joy and positivity every morning. His simple gesture has become a cherished tradition in our community.
Now, thanks to Savanna’s thoughtful design, his Falcon pride will shine even brighter! 💙

On Tuesday, April 1, our community will vote on a three-year, non-recurring operational referendum question for the Salem School District.
If it’s approved, the district will be able to raise its revenue limit by $2 million per year, through the 2027-28 school year. With these funds, the district would prioritize:
⭐ Maintaining class size ranges
⭐ Sustaining high-quality programming
⭐ Focusing on student success
⭐ Attracting and retaining high-quality educators
⭐ Ensuring long-term financial sustainability
An approved renewal of the operational referendum is NOT projected to have a levy rate increase.

From creating bouncing bubbles (and beating the record number of bubbles!) to experimenting with air pressure and participating in a weight distribution challenge, our Falcon volunteers were hands-on with science like never before! 🧪
What an incredible day of learning and discovery! Way to go, Falcons! 💙

Last week, students worked with Mrs. Ambrose to learn about emotions—how they can have different intensities and how we can feel more than one at a time.
Using plates, they labeled 6 emotions and placed pebbles to show how much of each feeling they’ve been experiencing lately. Then, they turned it into a game of hopscotch! If a pebble landed near a plate, they shared a time they felt that emotion before hopping to grab their pebble.
Such a fun and creative way to explore emotions! 💙
