There are many ways to serve at Salem. Help in the classroom, chaperone field trips, volunteer at events, support athletic games, or assist with hot lunch. Every hour you give strengthens the school community your child is part of.

Answers to common questions families ask about staying connected and involved at a private school.
PTC is Salem's parent organization, and all families are welcome. It supports the school through events, fundraising, and community building. PTC funds things like athletic equipment, field trip subsidies, health programs, and school party food. It is a great way to get involved and meet other families.
In most private schools, yes. At Salem, parent involvement is built into the culture—not treated as an afterthought. Our small size means you know the teachers, the staff, and the other families. Communication is personal and direct. You are a partner in your child's education, not a name on a mailing list.
Research consistently shows that strong parent-school partnerships lead to better academic results, stronger social skills, and higher student confidence.
Our teachers notice early because of small class sizes and deep relationships. If your child is struggling academically, socially, or emotionally, we reach out to you before it becomes a bigger issue. We do not wait for report cards or scheduled conferences to communicate concerns.
You can also monitor grades and attendance in real time through the FACTS Parent Portal.
Start with your child's teacher. At Salem, teachers are your first point of contact and they welcome honest conversations. If you need to take it further, our administration is responsive and accessible. We believe in resolving things early, directly, and respectfully.
All parents have access to the FACTS Parent Portal. Through FACTS, you can view grades, attendance records, and school announcements at any time. Login credentials are provided at the start of the school year. If you need help, contact the school office.
Yes. Salem holds regular parent-teacher conferences throughout the year. But you do not have to wait for a scheduled conference. Teachers are available for a conversation whenever you need one. That kind of access is one of the key benefits of choosing a small private school.
At a larger public school, parents often feel disconnected from daily school life. Communication can be impersonal and involvement opportunities limited. At Salem, the opposite is true. You know the teachers by name. They know your family. Conversations happen naturally — in the hallway, at pickup, or over a quick email.
Our small size means your voice matters and your involvement has a real impact on your child's experience.
