The Salem High School Athletic Booster Club is a
non-profit organization whose purpose is to ensure that Salem
High athletes have every opportunity for success. We believe
that high school athletics provide a positive outlet while
affirming teamwork and leadership so important to our
community and nation. Click here for membership and volunteer information.
CRITICAL to the success of the club is the
participation of parents, teachers, coaches, and administrators
in all the efforts to generate funding for the program. Results
of the club’s activities have been the ability to procure
equipment, upgrade the weight room, complete the irrigation of
the fields, fund tournament entry fees, contribute monies for
uniforms, and provide scholarships. Last year we provided over
$13,000.00.

participate in the National Gallery of Writing
Posted:
10/20/2009
The National Gallery of Writing is a gallery for the
collaboration of any writers in the SHS SunDevil Community.
Whether we call it texting, IMing,
jotting a note, writing a letter, posting an email, blogging,
making a video, building an electronic presentation, composing
a memo, keeping a diary, or just pulling together a report,
Americans are writing like never before. Recent research
suggests that writing, in its many forms, has become a daily
practice for millions of Americans. It may be the
quintessential 21st century skill. By collecting a
cross-section of everyday writing through a National Gallery
of Writing, we will better understand what matters to writers
today—and when writing really counts. Understanding who
writes, when, how, to whom, and for what purposes will lead to
production of improved resources for writers, better
strategies to nurture and celebrate writers, and improved
policy to support writing.
America's writing will be front and center on
October 20, 2009—
the National Day on Writing. On that day, writers from every
walk of life will pause to share their work. Communities across
the nation are planning events to celebrate local writing, and
NCTE will open the virtual National Gallery of Writing for all
to appreciate the rich variety of work on display. The National
Gallery will continue to accept submissions until June 1, 2010
and will remain open to readers through June 30, 2010.
