Salk is committed to an educational program that is student-centered, challenging, purposeful, interdisciplinary, and interconnected. Salk provides many opportunities for students to explore their personal talents and interests (no matter how fleeting). The school is based on a culture of respect, caring and appreciation. Our organizational structure helps connect students with adults so that no student is anonymous. We strive to involve parents with their child's learning, and to make them knowledgeable about what their children are doing in school and how they can support the school's mission. Salk is committed to forging linkages with the community that support student learning. During their journey through the "middle years," students are changing physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially. Middle School philosophy strives to address academic needs while attending to personal needs. Salk has high expectations and offers quality learning opportunities for all. We consider ourselves a "family" with all that this implies. Nearby public libraries...
