North Salem High school student Council Blood Drive will be held Friday, January 31st, 2019 in the high school library from 9-2

Right now, the American Red Cross has a significant blood shortage and is issuing an emergency request for eligible blood donors. Every donation matters, as blood is being distributed to hospitals faster than donations are coming in.  Eligible blood donors of all types are needed now.

In addition, by donating Blood you can help us, NS HS Student Council to secure a scholarship for one or more of our seniors.  The amount of this scholarship is directly correlated to the number of donors.

This is your opportunity to make a difference, not only helping our at large community but also one or more of our seniors to start their endeavor in college.

To make an appointment to donate please: go to www.RedCross.org and enter sponsor keyword:NoSalemHS

Please don’t hesitate to share this email with those whom you know and encourage them to participate.

Thank you for all your support.

Dear Students and Parents,

Our World Language Department offers our students the opportunity to gain an added distinction on their diploma.  The New York State Seal of Biliteracy (NYSSB) recognizes high school graduates who have attained a high level of proficiency in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in one or more languages, in addition to English.  The intent of the NYSSB is to encourage the study of languages; identify high school graduates with language and biliteracy skills for employers; provide universities with additional information about applicants seeking admission; prepare students with twenty-first century skills; recognize the value of foreign and native language instruction in schools; and affirm the value of diversity in a multilingual society.  Please visit this site for further information:  https://sites.google.com/northsalemschools.org/north-salem-sobl/home 

The North Salem District Emergency Response Plan is attached on the below link.  There is a 30 day comment period, which will end on September 23, 2019.  The Public Hearing will be held on September 25, 2019.  Please forward any comments to boe@northsalemschools.org.
