2021 Virtual Art Show
Artsonia
As you know, Artsonia is a digital art portfolio platform to share children’s artwork to families and extended family that we use at Southeast! It's a free, safe and educational program designed to connect parents and families with their child's creative activities at school. New artwork is often uploaded by Mrs. Gray-Langley at school, but you can also upload artwork with your smartphone at home! All artwork remains hidden until a parent visits Artsonia and gets connected by creating an account. If you still need help creating an account please contact Mrs. Gray-Langley at langleyk@parkhill.k12.mo.us. She will be able to handout permission slips for students to take home, which instruct parents how to connect online.
Here are some ideas about how to use Artsonia:
Start a Fan Club
Invite family and friends to join your child's official "Fan Club" so they can receive notification when new artwork is posted.
Approve Comments
Friends and family can leave positive comments about your child's artwork. Review and approve these comments so they can be posted on your child's gallery.

Scholastic Book Fair
This will be our last week of the Scholastic Book Fair.
The week of May 3-May 7, the fair will be open during library times for students to purchase books with money. You may add funds to their eWallet or send cash. We will NOT accept checks or cards from students. Again, the fair is not open for parents to come to school, and we are unable to accept parent volunteers as well. Keep us in mind for next year!
Yearbooks
If you have not yet ordered a yearbook, there are a few extras that will be sold as first come, first serve. If you would like to place an order, please email: SoutheastElementaryPTA@gmail.com. If any yearbooks are still available, the PTA will ensure your child gets a yearbook for $15.
Online Residency Verification for 21-22
Every year, all Park Hill families are required to visit the Campus Parent portal to verify student demographic, health, and emergency contact information, and submit proof of residency documents for the upcoming school year. You can access a digital copy of a guide for getting started on our website.
Note: Only a legal guardian living with a current student in their household can prove residency and complete verification for that student.
Summer School
Southeast Superstars will join Hopewell Hawks at Hopewell this summer while some building projects are done at Southeast.
- Enrollment via Infinite Campus (during online residency verification), April 5-May 7
After May 7, please call us or visit the Park Hill website to register your children.
Kindergarten Kickoff
Kindergarten enrollment is just around the corner, and we have important information for you if you have children starting kindergarten this August. If you have a neighbor with an incoming kindergarten student, please share this information.
- Enroll your kindergartener beginning April 5 in Infinite Campus.
- Save the date for Kindergarten Kickoff, which will be from 5 to 7:30 p.m. on May 6. You and your child with get a chance to explore Southeast and get excited for kindergarten. Use THIS SIGNUP GENIUS to pick a time to stop by.
- Get ready for our first day of school on Monday, August 23. We will be contacting you to schedule a kindergarten readiness assessment, so we can be ready to meet your child's educational needs.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
April Curriculum Connections
Check out the linked Curriculum Connections below to see what Park Hill students are learning! We want to share the learning topics at all of the grade levels so that you can ask your child about their learning this month. Your child's teacher is always happy to provide more details should you have questions!

Southeast Communication
You will find several ways to stay up to date on school activities on the Southeast website , Facebook, and newsletters from your child’s teacher. You will also occasionally get an automated email or voicemail message sent to you, by the school, with important information and reminders. We know two-way communication is best, so please feel free to call or email with any questions you may have regarding your child’s education.
