Welcome to South Salem Elementary School, where Every Student Matters and Every Day Counts. At our school, we pride ourselves in maintaining high expectations for learning and achievement while focusing on meeting the individual needs of each student. We have dedicated teachers who ensure our students benefit from engaging lessons that encourage our scholars to read, think critically, and be problem solvers.
As you know, home-school communication is a vital key to building success at school. Feel free to use your child’s agenda books, teacher email and Friday Folders to communicate with your child’s teacher. You can use this website to find general information about our school including calendar events, enrollment information, lunch menus, and more. You will also find educational links for your children.
I welcome your support in strengthening your family’s relationship with our staff and encourage you to stay involved in your children’s education. We have monthly Title I Parent Meetings that address academic information and activities, and we also have a Parent Resource Center housed in our media center that contains information and materials you can check out to practice academic skills with your children at home. Conferences or calls can be scheduled at any point to discuss your child’s progress.
We pledge to work together with you to educate and nurture our students. If I can be of assistance, you can contact me through email at

Your partner in education,
Terran Newman, Principal
