SMS Pennant Project The Salem Middle School Counseling Office has started the Pennant Project. School Counselors, Ms. Fialkow and Mr. Pszwaro, are emailing colleges and universities asking for their pennants so that they can be displayed in our school to expose our elementary school children to post high school education as early as possible. Hopefully, we can help lead the way for our young scholars to find themselves at many wonderful institutions. The response has been phenomenal. Soon the halls of Salem Middle School will be covered in pennants and posters.
