πŸŽ“Grab the tissues, SHS families, because the Class of 2026 just brought us all to tears (the best kind, we promise!) 😭❀️

Our soon-to-be graduates put on their caps and gowns and took a walk down memory lane for Senior Clap Out! They made their rounds through the halls of the very schools where their educational journeys began.

To see these young adults walking the hallways where they once learned their ABCs, high-fiving their former teachers and inspiring the next generation of students... let’s just say there wasn't a dry eye in the building. πŸ₯Ή

πŸŽ‰ BIG NEWS, SALEM CITY! πŸŽ‰

We are incredibly proud to announce that the Salem City School District has been officially recognized by the New Jersey Department of Education as a 2025-2026 Lighthouse Award recipient! 🌟
Out of hundreds of districts across the state, Salem City was one of just nine chosen for demonstrating measurable progress toward equitable outcomes and educational improvement.

Specifically, our district is being celebrated for Expanding Access to AP/IB Enrollment!

The Lighthouse Award recognizes districts that are actively breaking down barriers and opening doors for students. For us, this means expanding student access to Advanced Placement (AP) and International Baccalaureate (IB) programsβ€”giving our students a head start on college credit and preparing them to thrive in higher education.

As Dr. Lily Laux, Commissioner of Education, noted, programs like this highlight innovative practices that expand opportunities for students across our state so other districts can follow our lead.
This honor is a direct result of the hard work, dedication, and passion of our incredible students, teachers, administrators, staff, and families. Together, we are shining a light on what’s possible and ensuring every student in Salem City has the tools and opportunities to succeed.
Let's keep leading the way!

We were incredibly proud to share that Salem High School's very own Annalie F., an 11th grader, served as a keynote speaker for the conference! 🎀✨ Annalie did an absolutely phenomenal job inspiring peers from all over the region with her powerful words and leadership.

Our students wrapped up the day feeling motivated, confident, and ready to advocate for their futures and achieve their biggest dreams. You all represented Salem with such pride and excellence, superstars! πŸ‘πŸ’™
