December 7th - December 11th
December Greetings!
We have two weeks before our Winter Break kicks off. Please make sure that your student is attending class each day, engaging with their teachers and peers, and attending office hours (1:30 - 2:00 p.m.) when needed. Remember that all teachers are available during that time for extra help with assignments, explaining things more in detail if needed, or just available to say "hi" to!
Please remember that we are in need of Christmas/Holiday lights and inflatables if you can spare any. Our PTSA will be laying the groundwork this week for our December 17th event, the GP Express! If you can help out by providing an inflatable for us to borrow just for the evening OR some Holiday/Christmas lights, please let us know by filling out this form.
Speaking of PTSA...we are having our December meeting this Friday at 12 p.m. I will be sending a Zoom link; show up if you are interested in learning how you can be more a part of South and your student's education - even if we are learning from a distance!
Please remember that Ms. Heisner and the SMS Library are making home deliveries for library books! Deliveries will be every Friday until all students are back in school. Check out your Canvas Dashboard to check out books, or email Ms. Heisner for more information.
If you are a 7th grade family and were unable to swing by South last week to receive a brand new Chromebook, come on by this week to exchange your old Chromebook for a new one!
Keeping working hard. We've got some fun planned for us all next week, but we have to get there through the hard work first!
Best,
Mr. Sale
HELP ME HELP ME
Have everyone write down a list of 3-5 things that they would appreciate if someone helped them with, said to them, or shared with them.
Put it in a public place and see if, this week, everyone can get something checked off the list.
