I was a student at Salem for the past three years (I am now a freshman at a nearby high school) and I loved every minute. The teachers were said to be some of the few that were hands-on. Each teacher had a unique teaching style that worked for the majority of the students. There were a lot of extracurricular activities and things to do in school (ex. field trips, hands-on applications/projects). The teachers personally made sure that every student was trying their best and they put their hearts into every word they said. Academic programs include the arts, CTE, AG programs, and community service opportunities. If you are a parent searching for a school your child will love, try Salem. They will have a fantastic experience there! --Note- on a year-round schedule (which I loved), which made a difference.

My special needs daughter at Salem Middle couldn't have a better team of people to teach her! They have, at times, bent backwards to make sure that she has the support she needs to succeed. The weekly phone call is awesome as it allows us to keep up with all the activites going on, and there are quite a lot.I couldn't ask for a better Middle School,can't wait for my son to start!

We are very pleased with Salem Middle and our child has done extremely well there. The kids seem nice and the teachers and staff are outstanding - always giving 100%. We love the weekly (recorded) calls home from the principal which keeps us updated on school events. There are lots of clubs and activities to choose from after school. PTA is very active! Overall, it's been a wonderful experience.

We have had a very positive experience here. The teachers are great, very bright, well behaved kids and a clean school. I understand about the e-mail, but with each teacher responsible for 70 kids, it would be practically impossible to do much face to face. Its also part of being older and having less contact with teachers. My suggestion is to use the public PCs at the library.
