We are so excited to offer an after-school dance opportunity to the current Junior High students! This year, we will have two opportunities to be a part of the dance team at the Junior High. While on the dance team, you will build upon the elements of dance while exploring the choreographic and performance process. Each group will spend eight weeks creating and learning two dances for the Salem Hills Dance Showcases. The groups will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:45 to 3:45 PM in the small Gym at SJHS. The first group will be from September 5th to November 5th, with the show on November 6th. The second group will be from February 11th to May 1st, with the show on May 2nd. Salem Junior High students are welcome to participate in one or both groups. There will be a fee of $20 for one session and $30 for both sessions which covers the performance fees and personal dance shirt. Contact Coach Johansen (amber.johansen@nebo.edu)

Sources of Strength is an upstream suicide prevention program (Focusing each individual student’s strengths). Sources of Strength is a student-driven program with students acting as peer leaders for their school community and serving to strengthen Salem Junior High by helping students identify their “Sources of Strength.” Peer leaders and adult advisors will develop schoolwide strength-based monthly activities to help promote a positive school environment. Students will also be learning about how to identify and develop their strengths. We will be focusing on one "Strength" from the Strength Wheel each month during advisory!
