Jaguar Families,


It is with joy and excitement that we anticipate the start of the 2024-25 school year at SA this week!


As part of Salisbury Academy's new look, we've adopted a new tagline: It begins here. This phrase was thoughtfully crafted to uplift the ways in which our students thrive and are dynamically supported, from growing as critical thinkers and communicators, to developing in strength of character. At SA, leadership begins here. Community begins here. Passion begins here!


Our dedicated team looks forward to welcoming you at back-to-school events tomorrow and to a year of new and rewarding beginnings.


Warmly,


Beverly Fowler, Head of School
