We're hosting a workshop to talk with parents and community members about the design of the new West Salem middle and elementary schools. You will learn about the school design process and provide input about the layout of the building, as well as concepts for style design.

Workshop will include a chance to meet Soderstrom Architects and provide them with feedback.

Construction of the new schools is being funded by the voter-approved construction bond measure passed in November 2008. For more information about the construction bond, please visit http://www.salemkeizer.org/content/bond-updates.

School/District offices closed Friday - Oct 9

Submitted by Simona Boucek on October 5, 2009 - 1:27pm

Tags: e-update, news & updates

Due to state funding reductions, classified staff in our district agreed to take Friday, October 9 off without pay. Classified staff are key to district operations, so all school and district offices will be closed on that day. There will be no classes that day because it is statewide inservice day for teachers. We regret any inconvenience to the public and thank the classified employees for helping balance the district budget.
