Our Salmon River Local Honor Society is off and running.  The group met on January 14th.  The group elected Lotus Harper as President, Emily Diaz as Vice-President. Sofie Branstetter and Alethea Chapman will serve as Co-secretary.

Other business was organizing their first community service project of working at the food bank once a month.  The group will help unload the shipment that arrives and help distribute the supplies during the food bank hours.  The group will also help support the Bingo fun nights. The group will donate refreshments to help support the cities fundraiser efforts.

Four-Day School Week Research

By

Parents/guardians:
The RAND group will be at the jr/sr. high school on 12/16 and 12/17. They are conducting research nationwide on the impacts of the four-day school week.
As part of their research, they are holding discussion groups with students. Permission slips were sent home several weeks ago. We have not received a single slip back in the office. This leads us to believe that many students likely forgot to show them to you. Therefore, ALL students WILL BE possible members of these discussion groups UNLESS you contact the school directly and let us know you DO NOT want your student to participate. Please call Sherri at 630-6025 ext. 5101 or email Sherri at cereghinos@jsd243.org or Kyle at ewingk@jsd243.org
Thank you,

Zone 2 School Board Election

By

School Board Elections, Zone Two

 

If you live in Zone 2 (Rapid River Road and Seven Devils Road) remember to come out and vote for your school board member representative Tuesday November 5th.  No one submitted their paperwork in time to be put on the ballot. But, Eric Hook who is currently zone two’s representative, did submit his paperwork to be a write-in candidate.  No other individual showed any interest in serving as a Board Member.  If you would like him to continue to serve as a school board member from zone two you will need to write his name in.
