Principal's Message
SES Families:
Over the last three years at Southport Elementary School, we have focused on making learning more relevant and engaging for our students and also taught our students that they can make a positive contribution to our community. We feel this will prepare them for life and career and make them outstanding citizens who make a different locally and in the world.
Last year, our fifth graders learned of Savannah, who was a fourth grade student at Homecroft Elementary battling cancer and a brain tumor. They created a care package and a video message to share that we were thinking of her and supporting her in her battle. Unfortunately, Savannah passed away this week. Many of the schools in Perry Township have had jeans days with donations that benefit Savannah's family.
On Thursday, September 5th, we will have an out of uniform day and we encourage students to wear yellow which was Savannah's favorite color. We would like all students who dress out of uniform to bring at least a dollar which will be collected and donated to Savannah's family through a fund created by Homecroft Elementary. Thank you for your support of this event and a Perry Township family.
Enjoy the long weekend with Labor Day on Monday and we will see you back at school on Tuesday, September 3rd.
Thanks,
Jeff Spencer
SES Principal

Familias de SES,
En los últimos tres años en la escuela Southport Elementary, nos hemos enfocado en hacer el aprendizaje más relevante y comprometedor para nuestros alumnos y también les enseno a nuestros alumnos que ellos pueden hacer una contribución especial a la comunidad. Sentimos que esto los preparará para la vida y carrera y hacerlos unos ciudadanos maravillosos que hacen diferencia local o en el mundo.
El año pasado, nuestros alumnos de quinto grado supieron sobre Savannah, cuál era un alumna de cuarto grado en la escuela Homecroft Elementary cual peleaba contra el cáncer y un tumor en el cerebro. Ellos crearon un paquete y un mensaje en video para dejarle saber que estábamos con ella en su batalla. Desafortunadamente ella falleció esta semana. Varias escuelas de Perry Township tuvieron un dia de pantalón de mezclilla (jeans) con donaciones a la familia de Savannah.
El jueves, 5 de Septiembre, tendremos un día fuera de uniforme y pedimos a nuestros alumnos que usen amarillo cuál era el color favorito de Savananah. Nos gustaría que cada alumno que participe done por lo menos $1 cuál será donado a la familia de Savanna por una fundación que creó la escuela de Homecroft. Gracias por su apoyo en este evento y a la familia de Perry Township.
Disfrute el largo fin de semana en el dia de Labor Day el lunes y nos veremos de regreso a clase el Martes, 3 de Septiembre.
Gracias,
Jeff Spencer
