Parking Lot update: Thank you to everyone this morning as the drop off and pick up went very smoothly. Tomorrow we shift to the central section. Once again, it should not disrupt drop off or pick up but it will significantly impact available parking spaces. Faculty should plan to park around back. Please do not park in the Wednesday section.
Congratulations to these SES students for winning the VFW Essay Contests!
In the Grades 6-8 "Patriots Pen" division, top placing 8th graders were (left to right): Faith Swank (1st), Lacey Nelson (2nd), Haydon Carbon (3rd) and 7th grader Aryana Burge (4th) at the local level. In this division students must write an essay and this year's essay theme was “How Can I be a Good American?” They received $100, $75, $50, and $25 from VFW representatives alongside their certificates last week.
In the HS division, SES seniors Hart Nurnberg and Ben Monday entered the "Voice of Democracy" competition also sponsored by the VFW. This contest involves recording a 3-5 minute audio essay. The theme in the HS division this year was "America: Where Do We Go From Here?" Hart took second place locally ($200), and Ben took first place to win $250.

There will be some major disruptions to the traffic flow and parking at Southeast of Saline the week of Feb 7. Contractors will be on campus to repair cracks to the parking lot. Sections of the lot will be closed to parking Tuesday through Friday. We will try to keep the traffic flow consistent but parking will be challenging. Look for updates next week as the project progresses.
From Mrs. Swank: I was so proud of our school. We won all the local VFW Patriot's Pen awards! I was talking to one of the ladies there and she was so impressed with our school and the essays submitted this year and so many previous years. Mrs. Schoenfeld does such a great job encouraging our students to submit. There were 2 high school and 4 junior high winners. I was there because Faith got first place in the junior high! She won $100! Their essays go onto the state and possibly national level. It was a proud moment to see SES kiddos with such love for our country in such a difficult time. 💜
