C. L. Salter "Salterville" students, teachers and staff were treated to a pep rally this morning!  The THS Marching Drumline, Dancers and Varsity Cheerleaders were full of spirit as they arrived on campus.  They were greeted by all students here, K-6, wearing Tiger masks, shaking spirit cans and holding up signs.  These precious students will one day walk the hallowed halls of THS and will return to Salterville in uniform to help us celebrate future homecomings.  Despite all the negative going on in the world and our little town, it does our hearts good, that, for a few minutes, we can celebrate the good and create memories that last a lifetime.  We are thankful and blessed to be a part of Talladega City Schools.  Enough sappy, let's get happy! 
  BEAT THOSE AGGIES TONIGHT!  GO, THS!

Chester Drawers, from way out yonder in a place called Missouri, visited Salterville on September 24, 2015.  He is a beloved children's author and folk singer.  His songs and tales are intertwined with humor and lessons on building positive character traits in children.  He was kind enough to send us the lyrics to his songs so he was delighted to hear the children sing along.  He is living proof that there's more to a person than meets the eye.  Thank you, Mr. Chester Drawers, for visiting our school.  We hope we helped your stories of your Alabama visit be ones you'll enjoy telling!  Until we meet again, "Yeeeeee-Haw!"

The Tigers Are in the House!

Football season is here and I'm glad!
Football season is good, not bad.
The cheerleaders cheer their team in the game
I love our team and Tigers the name!

The players and cheerleaders visit our school
Now listen to me...this is really cool!
They bring their Tiger in his furry suit
He gives us hugs; we think he's cute!

We love seeing our students who are now so grown
Coming back to give back from the seeds they've sown.
We wish our Tigers the very best
Because we know they roar louder than all the rest!


The Tiger mascot is shown here with one of 
Mrs. Cochran's fourth graders, Tykayla Fears,
 and a member of the THS football team, JQ Wilson.
Lots of Learning and Learning Is Good is
Happening at Salterville, in your neighborhood!
So learn all you can, do you hear me now?
Learning is good but you have to know how!

Mrs. Frames and Mrs. Phillips know how to have fun
When making the fossils till the job is all done.
These 3rd graders learn with fun in this place
We know that because of the smile on each face!

Just ask a 3rd grader about fossils, you hear?
They'll tell you about it with laughter and cheer!
Their teachers helped them to learn a fun way
Learning is fun...it brightens your day!

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!
