In today's interconnected world, community partnerships are a driving force behind the holistic development of students. These partnerships are more than just cooperative ventures; they allow students to thrive academically, gain practical experience, engage in internships, learn about networking and contribute to the overall well-being of our community.

Old Salem Museums and Gardens

Old Salem Museums & Gardens is a historic site telling the stories of people, including Moravian, Black, and Indigenous peoples, in the American South through the preservation and interpretation of material culture, architecture, and cultural landscapes. Having a National Historic Landmark nestled right next to Salem Academy creates opportunities for Academy students to serve as interns, volunteer with historic research such as the Hidden Town Project, and see firsthand the need to understand the past in order to create a strong future.  The 9th-grade students tour multiple Old Salem locations and buildings each fall semester as part of their STEAM course when they learn about the history of the school, its Moravian heritage, and the remarkable women who have taught and learned at Salem Academy for over 250 years.
