Tuesday Woof - 4/12

 (1.) Check out these creative 7th grade sculptures from Art class!

(2.) Construction on the new South building is happening quickly. Foundations around the classroom wing have been going up all month, and three sides of the courtyard have been formed. The first fire wall went up today!

(3.) All term 3 work is due by the end of this week, and report cards will be issued on Monday, 4/25 after the break. See your teacher this week about any makeup work or retakes!

(4.) Congratulations to the Larivees and the Auclairs, winners of the first 2 PTO Calendar Raffle drawings this week! We're just over halfway through the prize drawings, if you can believe that. Just as much fun is yet to come!  Buy your tickets and get them to our Main Office ASAP!

(5.) Looking for something to do during April Break? The Harvard Undergraduate Studies in Education (HUSE) program, a premiere undergraduate organization dedicated to promoting education as a career field, hosts an annual program called Splash, which traditionally offers high school students free opportunities to take classes taught by Harvard students on topics not usually incorporated in traditional high school curricula. This year, they are offering the Splash! experience virtually on Saturday, 4/23 and Sunday, 4/24, and have expanded the invitation to middle school students. There is no application required to participate in Splash, but enrollment will be filled on a first come, first served basis through Sunday, 4/17. See below for more information.
“Join hundreds of other high schoolers in taking free classes taught by Harvard students on a variety of topics not traditionally taught in high school curricula! From mapping abnormal psychology, to building a city, to changing the world without money, Splash has dozens of classes to offer that may deepen your knowledge on a subject you already love or uncover a new passion in both small intensive seminars and large lectures.

Throughout the days at Splash, you will also have opportunities to virtually interact with and develop relationships with Harvard students. You will get to experience what it’s like to be a student at Harvard and learn more about Harvard’s history, campus, and intellectual tradition. You choose what kind of amazing learning experience you want to get out of Splash!

This year, Splash at Harvard will be virtual and take place on SATURDAY, APRIL 23 10AM - 12:15PM ET and SUNDAY, APRIL 24 1PM - 3:15PM ET.

Fill out this Google Form or tiny.cc/SPLASH2022 to demonstrate your interest in attending the program! We will reach out to you about how to officially register after you have filled out the form.

Please reach out to harvardhuse@gmail.com if you have any questions or concerns.
Registration will close on April 17, 2022, 11:59 PM and will be processed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Register now!”

Bulldog Bulletin - 6/3/2025

Congratulations to all the students that participated in the Trills and Thrills music festival this past Friday - your hard work and effort paid off! Your playing and love for music impressed one of the adjudicators so much that he wrote an email to our superintendent letting him know how much he appreciated South Middle School’s music program!  7th & 8th grade orchestra won gold and the 7th & 8th grade Band and Concert Choir both earned silver.  This Thursday, 6/5, is the last day for Late Bus this school year. Students can still stay after for extra help, but you’ll need to arrange for a ride home or plan to walk! Homework Lab also ends this Thursday, so if you plan to stay after, you’ll need to make plans with one of your teachers. Don't forget! Bus registration ends next Friday, 6/13.  See the Districtwide post for bus registration information. Please check the Yearbook Sales list posted at your homeroom entrance.  If anyone thinks they purchased a y...
