Salk School opened in 1961 with an enrollment of 220 students. The number gradually increased to a high of 840 in that same year. Four portable classrooms were added during peak years to accommodate growing numbers of children.

Today, Salk is one of six elementary schools within the Fraser Public Schools. We now have 24 classrooms, 4 SSLI classrooms and a resource room. Our current enrollment is 564 students.

The Salk staff is dedicated to providing the very best for students. Our teachers are committed to continuous professional development. This year's professional development focused on the areas of teaching reading comprehension, phonics, problem solving, student assessment, process writing and technology
