This morning, we learned of the heartbreaking loss of a student from the Salem School District. During this difficult time, our thoughts and prayers are with the student's family, friends, and the Salem community. Counselors are available on campus to support our students and staff. We are all one community and stand together in this time of loss. Games this evening have been canceled.💙💛
