As Physical Educators, it’s our job to instill knowledge in our students that will last a lifetime. The knowledge they can take with them and use as they grow in their understanding of various fitness concepts and ideas. It’s important that our students have the confidence and ability to perform a variety of movements that they enjoy and can repeat. But also, that they acquire the desire to push their knowledge and abilities forward with a focused intent to pursue health and wellness for a lifetime. Our goals are bigger than just 1 trimester, our classroom goals are inherently learned over time so that our students may draw on their time in the Weight Room at Saline and share it with others. We truly believe this project is student-centered and delivers the necessary messages that are incredibly important in our classes every day at Saline High School.

Our project entails outfitting and upgrading a new space for the Hornet Hutch.

Having a diverse classroom library offers students mirrors, doors, and windows to broaden their perspective of themselves and the world around them. It allows students to have honest and open conversations and to gain understanding of similarities and differences in their peers and communities. This project also aligns with our continued DEI efforts within our district, building, and grade level.

The American dream game is about the inaccessibility of the American dream. This game will encourage participants to explore our complex society in someone else’s shoes. In the game participant can explore the bias, stereotype, discrimination, and general inequalities that attack the possibility of achievement of the American dream.

In a time of hybrid learning, our students at home and in school deserve the best classroom experience we can provide. With the Owl, our teachers can move around the room and provide the best experience for both. Also, students at home can more easily hear and see classmates, making many activities, Socratic seminars, and class discussions better for all.

Along with teacher input, students are invited to participate in the Saline Middle School Academic

Earn an E in any core class (Language Arts, Math, Science, and/or Social Studies)
A downward trend in student achievement resulting in failing grades

For the 2020-21 school year, the Academic Review Summer Camp (previously Jumpstart) is a four-week program from July 19th – August 20th from 8-12 AM.

Social and emotional learning (SEL) provides a foundation for safe and positive learning, and enhances students’ ability to succeed in school, careers, and life.
