Our Mission

The Salem High School community is dedicated to the pursuit of academic excellence, democratic ideals, and reputable character as we learn in a dynamic, diverse, and collaborative environment. We believe that all students can learn, and student learning is the primary focus of all decisions impacting the work of the school; each student is a valued individual with unique physical, social, emotional, and intellectual needs; teachers, administrators, parents, students, and the community share the responsibility for advancing student learning; the commitment to continuous improvement is imperative to enable students to become self-directed, life-long learners who take risks in an effort to adapt to and create change
