PSA Faculty and Staff Christmas Gift
|
Now through Friday, December 13, PSA will be collecting voluntary donations toward a Christmas Gift Fund for the teachers and staff members of Salisbury Academy. We all know how difficult it can be to find just the right gift for each teacher, so, to make your life a bit easier, you can show your appreciation to the entire staff in ONE CHECK!
PSA will pool all the money received and deliver Christmas cheer to each
teacher and staff member before the Christmas break.
Please make your check payable to "Salisbury Academy-PSA" and write "PSA
Staff Gift" in the memo section. Tracey Peoples will accept the checks at the
front desk, or you may send in an envelope with your child with "PSA Staff
Gift" on the front.
A note with all of the contributing families will accompany each staff gift. Thanks so much, and happy holidays!

Announcements
We are excited to share that there will be a designated student seating section at home basketball games going forward! Please note the following:
- Moving forward we ask that students not work/sit in the concession area during games but rather sit in the designated student seating. The only exceptions to this rule will be if the parent of the student is working the concession stand or permission has been given by Coach Wilson or Mrs. Fowler.
- Stage seating at basketball games will be reserved for coaches, staff, and parent volunteers only.
- For the sake of safety and flow of the game, we will no longer allow anyone but players to be on the court during halftime or in between games.
