Salem Middle School is a recipient of the Pearl School Award for Excellence in Environmental Education, the Blue Ribbon Award for District II Superior Ratings in Band, Orchestra, and Chorus. We have also achieved the AVID Schoolwide Site of Distinction.
During their time here, our students will work alongside caring and capable teachers, staff and administrators while tackling a rigorous instructional program. We set high expectations for our Sharks, and we see them excel through their academics, their leadership and in their service to others.
Salem Middle offers many exciting academic and extracurricular opportunities for our students. We encourage students and families to take advantage of all the programs and events at Salem in order to make the most of the middle school experience.
We are looking forward to a wonderful year.
