Pumpkin Math?

These students in Mrs. Phillips' 3rd grade class stepped "outside their box" and teamed up for Pumpkin Math.  The students had to have a plan, gut their pumpkins and remove the seeds.  Let the measuring and calculating begin!  

Way to go, Mrs. Phillips and class!

If You Think It Is Going On...

You Must Be At C. L. Salter School!

IT is happening-just this week alone-

Our staff and students have IT going on!

We've capped bad drugs 

We've gone inside-out-

We wore our red today

We know what IT'S about!

We'll sock it to drugs tomorrow

We won't have any sorrow!

We'll team up against drugs

We'll have fun at the Fall Fest

We've voted for the best pumpkins....

Salter is just the best!

Our teachers rock here every day

They teach us to read and write what we say

They make cool stuff

To help us learn it all;

We feel so much smarter

And it is just the Fall!

Fund Raising Rewarded

In an effort to help our school's success with our cookie dough sale, the top prize was to get to be "P. E. Teacher/Coach for the Day!"  I'm sure the students saw their new coach this morning and we hope they all had a great day with their P. E. teacher!  Congratulations, La'Kelvius Kelley!  You sold the most cookie dough!  We all appreciate your hard work and hope your day in charge of the P. E. classes was all you though it would be!  Kudos to Coach for his inspiring role with our successful cookie dough sale.  Thank you, Mrs. Dye for giving up your student today!  As always:  C. L. Salter Elementary School is the greatest place on earth to grow and learn!

Loving yourself just opens the door

To friendships and loving others more.

Living Drug-Free is the coolest, ever!

Bad drugs are knives that destroy and sever!

Gladly wear your hats

To "Put the Cap on Drugs"

And always remember:

Hugs are better than drugs!

Salter Elementary School students, teachers and staff gladly support the efforts of Red Ribbon Week.  Here is a daily activity list for the week:

Monday:  "Put a Cap on Drugs" (Wear red/crazy cap)

Tuesday:  "Drugs Turn you Inside Out" (Wear clothes inside out)

Wednesday:  "Wear Red Day" (Wear red clothing)

Thursday:    "Put a sock on Drugs"  (Wear crazy socks)

Friday:  "Be on a Drug-Free Team" (Wear favorite team jersey)

All students are given Drug-Free Red Ribbons to wear.  They are encouraged to sign an "I Pledge to Be Drug-Free" promise.  We wish we didn't have to address this topic but, unfortunately, drug abuse is a problem in our world.  We can't keep our children from seeing bad things but we can all work together to teach them how NOT to be a part of the bad!

Just like the wind and the leaves of fall

October will soon be gone away, y'all!

 Do You Want to Buy Some Cookie Dough?

 Kick-Off Day for the Cookie Dough Sale!  Even teachers

and staff are excited!

 The packets are counted and ready to go home.  Have you

read yours?

 Have you asked your teachers and staff at school if 

they would like to buy some cookie dough?

 I love the way the students listened to Mr. Booker

as he presented the prizes.

 I think Mrs. Hester would like to win these shoes!

We are ready to sell!

The wonderful thing about fundraisers

Is not the prize we achieve.

It's that we help our school

To dream and believe!

With every tub of cookie dough

That's sold to neighbors and friends

Helps our school to do fun things

For memories that never end.

If everybody does their part

Successful we will be....

Success for all begins with a word

That word is simple...me!

The more you sell, the more you win

The prizes are fun to win.
