It was wonderful to see our hallways and classrooms filled with happy smiles, excitement for the year ahead, and enthusiasm for learning during these first days of the school year!
Salisbury Academy is a wonderful place for children to spend their most critical years of growth and development. Our faculty and staff are deeply invested in the success of every student, and our beautiful campus and outstanding facilities offer plenty of room to grow in mind, body, spirit, and character. We look forward to a year of discovery and growth together!
