Greensburg Salem students return to classroom

Greensburg Salem School District students return to the classroom today.

Channel 11′s Andrew Havranek spoke with Superintendent Dr. Ken Bissell, who said it’s an exciting time for students, teachers and administration.

In the excitement, there’s always a bit of nervousness that everyone deals with. The advice he would give?

“Have an open mind. Have fun. Get involved in everything that you can get involved with,” he said. “Trust that we love your kids, that we have their best interests at heart, and we’re going to do everything we can to take care of them every single day.”

Mental health is also a top priority, Bissell said. That starts by taking care of teachers and staff and working their way down and making sure students’ needs are met.
