Superintendent’s Message
As the Superintendent of Sugar-Salem School District #322, I would like to welcome you to our website and hope you find the information you need.
Sugar-Salem School District is truly a great place to work and attend school. I am always buoyed up as I visit the hallways and see the quality of students we have here. There are a minimal amount of discipline issues and a great deal of support between our students. After each bell rings the halls are full of happy and smiling students who seem to enjoy the entire Sugar-Salem experience.
Another high point in our school district is the amount of positive communication between teachers, students, and administrators. I often hear good things from students about their teachers and how they feel about their educational experience.
In spite of all the positives our district has to offer we have our own set of problems. But if we are not aware of them we can not do anything to improve the situation. So if you see or hear of any issue you think needs to be addressed, please call your child’s teacher, his or her principal, or even myself, and we will do our best to be of service.
I hope you enjoy your time on our website and in our school district.
Sincerely,
Alan Dunn
Superintendent
