Welcome, Pygmy Falcons!
As the youngest member of the Falcon Family, your 5th Grade team, will help each of you to answer the following question, "Who am I, and who will I become?" In order to guide you as you discover the answer to that question, we will encourage every one of you to always strive to be "the very best version of yourself." Someone is always going to be better than you at something, so learn to compete with your own self and not others. That new mindset will help you find the very best "YOU."
"The only person you should try to be better than, is the person you were yesterday."

Our classrooms are a place where everyone is safe to learn, question, grow, and be their own unique selves without judgement.
Hello Learners and Parents,
My name is Mr. Chris Adams and I am very excited to be teaching 5th grade this year. I really enjoy working with children of the Salisbury community. I graduated from Penn State University. I am married and have 2 sons. My older son is starting his teaching career and the younger son is at Kutztown University. I also have a dog. He is a Goldendoodle named Jake. My goal in education is to give every student the confidence to contribute to our class, school and community.
Mrs. Magditch
Hello 5th graders! My name is Mrs. Magditch and I am very excited to meet each of you this year! A fun fact about me is that I grew up in the Salisbury Township School District! I graduated from Penn State University with my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and Lehigh University with my Master's Degree. This year I will be starting my 33rd year teaching in the Salisbury Township School District. I am married to my husband, George and have three children named McKenna, Alex, and Georgia. I also have two dogs named Bailey and Chauncey and a cat named Sullivan. Some of my favorite activities are spending time with my family, traveling, and being a swim mom. I absolutely love being a teacher and watching my students grow both in their learning and as a person. Let's have a wonderful year in 5th grade!
Mrs. Neitz
Hello 5th graders! I am Mrs. Beth Neitz. I graduated from Whitehall High School, Bloomsburg University with my Bachelor's/Elementary Education teacher certificate, and Cedar Crest College with my Master's Degree/Special Education teacher certificate. I enjoy living and teaching in the Salisbury community with my husband Gary and two daughters, Bailee and Brinlee. I enjoy spending time with my family, watching softball/field hockey/dance, and going on walks with our rescue dog, Sunday. Since 1st grade, I knew I wanted to be a teacher and inspire kids to do their best. I always use my mom's motto, "You can do anything you want to do, if you put your mind to it."
