West Salem High School parents and community:

As the fall athletic season comes to an end and the winter sports begin I realize the year is flying by.
We had a great turnout at parent conferences last week. If you have not had a chance to receive your access code to the In-touch program, please stop by the office to sign up for this important tool to stay in touch with school.
Last Saturday our band took first place in their division at the competition in Eugene. The marching band program this year is certainly impressive.
Speaking of impressive, we had a number of Mr. Dey's science research students present at the West Salem Rotary meeting on Monday and they certainly impressed the group. Presenting their projects were: Ian Love, Ashley Wiens, Marisa Cortright, Erin Apodaco, Nicole Marsaglia, Alex Edison, Alex Dennis, Emily Martin and Michelle Lechner.
A special congratulations to our music department. They are a finalist for the Grammy Signature School program.
We have a lot to be proud of at West Salem High School and I appreciate your support.
