A Life-Changing Experience at Salem Academy…read more Middle school can be a tough time for kids, but Salem Academy's Bridge 56 program offers something truly special. It gives students the independence they need while still providing the support and guidance to help them succeed. Our son started at Salem Academy in 5th grade, and this school has changed his life in ways we never could have imagined. Unlike public schools, Salem Academy looks at the whole child--focusing not just on academics, but also on character and personal growth. It's a safe, encouraging place where kids can learn, grow, and become who they were meant to be, surrounded by positive role models and supportive peers. Now, as we approach graduation, our family will forever be grateful for our time at Salem Academy.

Curriculum themes (seasons, colors, holidays, etc) are integrated with reading, pre-writing and storytelling, counting, art, and music (my daughter loves to sing the songs she's learned) and biblical stories. She is proud to know about rules, consequences, manners, and personal responsibility: i.e. clean up, sharing, communicating, etc. and has made many friends. She loves her teacher and the day care staff, all of whom are warm, knowledgeable, gentle and supportive. And she comes home happy! What could be improved? At drop-off, we working parents are in a rush, and the daycare staff isn't as cohesive as I believe they could be in helping with the transition . . . it's a little bumpy. I've seen where teachers and staff come to the car to get the kids and bring them in: I liked it because it saves time and the transition is clear-cut. Other than this minor issue, Sonshine School has been a blessing for us and I would highly recommend it.

Ed Millis and Jennifer Gibson-Millis, with their 40 years of combined education experience, share their passion for the outdoors and desire to give students a lasting memory, be it hiking through an old growth forest, "sledding" down the dunes of the Oregon Coast or learning a new skill such as cross country skiing. I highly recommend giving your child an everlasting gift by sending them on an "Edventure".
