Our mission is to prepare young people to be strong in all aspects of their lives. We strive to cultivate an atmosphere of academic excellence, respect, and sense of community. We value innovative ideas and make decisions that help ensure student's learning and success. We provide multiple opportunities for students to be actively engaged both in and out of the classroom.
Salem Junior High Spartans are strong in Body, Heart, and Mind. Our Bodies are actively engaged in school sports, extracurricular activities, and keeping ourselves physically healthy. Our Hearts advocate for respect and loyalty among our peers, teachers, staff, and administrators. Our Minds are innovative, open, and driven to strive for academic excellence and critical thinking.
SaJHS participated in the intramural weightlifting activity at Mt. Nebo Jr. High in October. We had three students participate, Joel Mason, Colton Lee, and Jessica Brimley. They each earned a third place medal in their respective weight categories. Congratulations to our "heavy lifters!"
New Spartan benches arrive and are enjoyed by Mr. Mecham, Mrs. Lundell, Mrs. Stubbs, Mrs. Kimball and Mrs. Ford!
Our first Spartan Target Conference was a huge success!! Students explained to their parents the topics they have learned and then established an academic or behavior goal that will be reviewed at the next conference. We had 73% attendance at the conference which is phenomenal - thanks to our students and parents for their support!
Spartan Target Conference Nov 1 - 3:30 – 7:30
WHY DO WE HAVE SPARTAN TARGET CONFERENCES?
The electronic marquee is now functional and is a wonderful addition to our school. The procurement of the sign has been a great effort on the part several parties.
