21st Century Instructional, Health & Safety
 

The district is gearing up for the recently voter approved 21^st Century Instructional, Health and Safety Capital Project. This project will allow the district to create 21st century classrooms, develop a Salmon River Middle School, create a continuum of special education services from Pre-Kindergarten through grade 12 through collaboration with the FEH BOCES, and totally renovate the art, music and physical education facilities in the high school. The scope of the project also includes building new technology and home and careers classrooms, creating new office areas for the student services programs, and building a number of new classrooms for the Salmon River Elementary, the new middle school and the existing high school.

Additionally there will be upgrades to our transportation facility. We are very pleased that we will be able to proceed with a partnership with the FEH BOCES in the development of a Trades Academy, the first satellite Career and Technical Education Program in New York State! This program will be located on our local school district campus. We are now proceeding with the planning of this program and hope to utilize the expertise of area businesses who are involved in the trades as we move forward to establish the parameters of the skills that will be taught.

These are very exciting times for the Salmon River School District! The Board, the administration, and staff have worked diligently to attain this project. We intend to create 21^st Century learning environments for the students in order to provide the pupils with the skills they will need to be successful in a 21st Century world! We appreciate the voters' belief and faith in the district!

There are great times ahead here at Salmon River!
