Salem Families,
Late last night we received an email containing a bomb threat. EW and WW did not receive this threat.
Upon receipt our local and state police were notified. Our buildings and grounds have been searched.
We also believe this threat is not credible however out of an abundance of caution Salem Community Schools will not be in session today, April 14, 2023.
We will have an elearning day on May 5, 2023. We will not be sending the Prosser bus this morning.
