  A Family Affair

  My Mom, my 2 siblings and I, my 4 children, and multiple cousins have graced the halls of this wonderful school. I have visited a lot of schools both Christian and non, over the years, and I have never seen any, that have generations of alumni/staff that keep coming back year after year for games, concerts, events, and fundraisers in support of their beloved WMS. It's just hard to explain it, but everyone welcomes new families right into it and they too become a part of this great, supportive ,loving community of people. I think it's just God's hand that binds us together in an unexplainable way.

  Great Middle and High School!

  Both my kids attended and graduated from Western. They participated in many things including student government, soccer, small groups, basketball, chapel, baseball, choir, service projects, international club and some of the most fun student sections you will ever witness at sporting events! You truly won't believe this is a small school when you see the support they have at every type of event. My kids made friends from all around the world that will be their lifelong friends. They had caring teachers and staff who were genuinely interested in their distinct personalities and abilities and wanted to see them maximize their potential in all areas. Some people think private schools are just for rich kids -- this is just not true of WMS. Alumni and other supporters believe so much in the experience here that they make scholarships available to a huge number of kids, greatly lessening the financial impact to families. You just won't find another school that can have so much positive impact on your children and your family.

  Compassion and community

  WMS is an amazing school with dedicated, caring and Christ centered teachers and staff. We are so thankful that our children have had the opportunity to be a part of this school. The community is strong and the friendships are lifelong. My oldest told me that he would like his kids to go to the school one day because of his own personal experience. A true testimony of the impact the School had had on him. The academics have been appropriately challenging and have prepared my kids well for college. We are thankful for this school and look forward to seeing it continue to grow and be a place where more students can experience the community, compassion and academic challenge it offers. Go Pioneers!

  Impressive!

  Points we consider important when discussing the education of our children. Spiritual, Intellectual, and finally Social. Under the watchful eye of Al Stefan, the administration and all who interact with our children this environment is conducive to the growth and well being of all 3 of our children who attend. What a community and what a school!

  Best decision!

  Transferring my son to Western Mennonite was the best decision we have made. His confidence is amazing, has made genuine friendships & loves the positive atmosphere from not only the students but the staff as well.

  We love the community that is Western

  As a proud alum and parent, we love the Western Mennonite community. Our kids are 3rd generation Pioneers, and we couldn't be happier that they have been able to attend Western, be part of a supportive and yet rigorous academic curriculum, participate in sports, and thrive overall with great teachers, staff, and friends. Thank you, Western, for being a great school.

  Great Whirlocal Presentation

  Thanks for partnering with Third River to provide the webinar on whirlocal. I will be setting it up for our firm shortly. Thanks also to all the terrific staff at the Salem Chamber that work hard on behalf of Salem businesses and the community at large! I am blessed to live and work in Salem.

  Stand And Deliver

  The Salem Chamber understands it's mission and they stay focused on it. It is by far the best friend the Salem business community has. Nobody pays a business for trying hard, they pay a business for delivering on commitments. The Chamber delivers like the businesses it represents.

  Salen Chamber is Leadership

  As a member and a Board Member I've had the opportunity to view the Chamber from many angles. It is hard to imagine a Chamber that would be more focused on advancing the interests of business. Extensive programs for networking and business development; Forums, Connect 4, Greeters, etc, excellent leadership development; Leadership Salem and Leadership Youth and strong business advocacy through candidate and issue in depth investigation and public policy forums. The Chambers consulting capabilities available to our members are high quality. The talented set of staff members can provide a valuable "outsider" look at plans and strategies and really help sharpen your focus on your customers needs. The web site is a great way to gain further understanding of the offerings and I encourage all members to investigate the ways they can maximize the value of their membership by taking advantage of the tools offered. The leadership of the Chamber has been of the highest caliber under Mike's tenure and continues with Jason. Truly two remarkable leaders that we are fortunate to have the benefit of.

  We really appreciate the Chamber!

  When we first started our business about 5 years ago, one of the first things we did was join the chamber. I had been working outside of our community for several years and felt like it was an important step to getting reconnected with local businesses and community members. That first step did indeed turn out to be an important one for our business and we are now proud and active members of the chamber. The connections have really helped us grow our business and become a better member of our local business community. I can't thank the chamber staff enough for all the hard work they do every day to help the local businesses succeed ... mine included!
