From Southside PTO
We are looking forward to Cookies with Santa on December 12th from 5:30-7:30. All of the proceeds from the Silent Auction and donations will be used to purchase Christmas gifts for those most in need in our building. Any remaining funds will be used to supply the year round needs of our students and be held in a benevolence fund.
The Christmas decorations at Southside look amazing. A big thank you to Rilee Tipton and all of her helpers. We will be un-decorating the building of everything Christmas on December 20th. Any volunteers are welcome.
The new Military Committee has supplied our school counselor, Mrs. Gross, with a wealth of material to be used in core groups of children of deployed parents and those serving in our military. There are also books and other resources that may be checked out of our Parent Resource Center to be taken home by parents and used in the home setting.
The Military Committee has also planned to honor our military children on April 17th, Purple Up Day, in the Paw Pride assembly. Details to come, but it will be a special day.
In the event that you are tardy....
