We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Salem High School is very average. There is nothing that stands out to me as a high school student that makes me love my school. Some teachers are extremely dedicated to helping their student while others don't care as much. The school is small compared to others, but that doesn't help with getting more one-on-one time with teachers as it should.

The staff was amazing and really cared about the students but I feel like I was learning outdated information.
