Book Fair

The Book Fair was a big success. Thanks to all the teachers, parents, and students who visited and shopped. A special thanks to all the volunteers that gave their time to help make this event so successful.

District Wide Parent Extravaganza

The District Wide Parent Extravaganza was held at Talladega High School on October 21. After a welcome session from Dr. Horton, Mr. Campbell, Pattie Thomas, and Board Chairman Joe Hare, parents were invited to attend two sessions of their choosing. The Extravaganza ended in the lunchroom of Talladega High School with parents, teachers, students, and the community enjoying food, fellowship, and lots of interesting information tables.

Cookie Dough Sale

Our cookie dough fundraiser was a HUGH success thanks to students, parents, and teachers. Our goal was $2,500.00 and we raised over $9,700.00 for our school!!! We plan to buy a "treasure tower" for reading incentives, technology for the school, and use the funds for many ongoing projects. Students were rewarded with grab bag prizes, the nickel grab, the Moon Walk jump, drawings, and a $50.00 gift certificate that was won by our top seller Lakevious. Teachers were awarded with popcorn parties, a pizza party, lunch, and gift certificates. We are very proud of our students and greatly appreciate their efforts.

Salter Shut-Ins

Mrs. Ensley and Ms. Joiner, along with their fourth grade students, presented bags of goodies to their selected shut-ins in the community. Included in the bags were items ranging from toiletries to food items. The reaction to this loving gesture of compassion was evident in the face of the ladies. They enjoyed the visit more than receving the gift items. Both teachers agreed that they received greater satisfaction from their visit than did the shut-ins. Each month, teachers and students come up with creative ideas to reach the elderly in our community. Instilling values within the students that promote long-lasting care and compassion is the goal of the principal and faculty.

The Principal's Principles

CREATIVITY - CREATIVITY MEANS TO USE YOUR IMAGINATION TO DEVELOP NEW IDEAS. Our imagination is powerful and can be used in many ways. According to Albert Einstein " Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions."

Creativity is the power to explore the world and express yourself in your own unique way. You can express your ideas and feelings through art by drawing pictures, writing stories, playing musical instruments, dancing, acting in a play, or singing in the choir. Leonardo da Vinci was a famous painter, but he was also a genius in math, engineering, and science. He imagined and drew detailed pictures of machines similar to a helicopter and a military tank hundreds of years before they were actually created. Let your creativity and dreams be the beginning of wonderful inventions or beautiful art.

Art Projects

Several students from Talladega College visited our Kindergarten, first, and second grades to work on an art project together. They worked on details with shapes and made some spooky Halloween pictures. Thanks Talladega College students!

Mobile Apple Notebook Laptop Stations

Mr. Locklin, Mrs. Bostick, Mrs. Romine, and Mrs. Clark worked diligently to download programs onto the Apple Notebook Laptops to get them ready to be used by the students and teachers. Integrating technology into the classroom has been a priority at Salter. Our goal is to prepare our students for the 21st Century and using technology such as SMARTBoards, Classroom Performance Systems, and laptop notebooks will help get them started.
