New this week: Every student who collects at least one pledge by March 27 will earn a non-uniform pass, and the class with the most pledges will celebrate with a pizza party!

Tomorrow, on Monday, March 23 from 5–8 p.m., enjoy dinner at Zaxby’s (1030 W. Jake Alexander Blvd.), where 10% of all sales will be donated to the Salisbury Academy PSA. It’s a simple (and tasty!) way to give back - just dine in or take out and support our school community.

Green Spotlight with Katherine Elkins, Sustainability Coordinator Intern

Hello everybody!

I hope you had a wonderful spring break. For this week's newsletter, I wanted to spotlight what we've been up to in Eco Club after school!

This week, the Eco Club attendees got to help create wildflower seed balls. These will be used to start a wildflower garden right on Salisbury Academy’s campus.

During the upcoming Earth Day Fair, students will get the opportunity to participate in planting this wildflower garden using these seed balls.

Thank you so much to my wonderful helpers in Eco Club! Stay tuned for the fun to come at the Earth Day Fair, and have a great weekend!
