Monday Woof


Tonight is the ArtFest reception to appreciate the creative talents of students in all Braintree. Below, please find the list of featured South artists. We hope to see you all there!
Please mark your calendars for Wednesday, May 25th to hear a presentation entitled “ VAPING 411”. It will be held at East Middle school in the auditorium and will start at 6:30 pm. For more information please see the Vaping 411.pdf flier. All middle school adult caregivers who attend will be given a homework pass to give to their child(ren). The homework pass can be used by your student(s). Please remind your student that the teacher has full discretion as to what the “homework” pass can be used for and it can only be used once. This presentation is for adults only. Your student does NOT need to attend to receive the homework pass. We are looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday, May 25th!
Last week, the South Ambassadors Club celebrated Inclusion Week by hosting a daily challenge. All students had the chance to guess a new mystery teacher's identity, based on an awkward photo from their middle school years, posted daily. Then, a drawing was held to reward winning guesses, and each daily announcement included words of wisdom from that teacher about lessons they've learned for surviving middle school and thriving in these awkward years!
Tomorrow night--Tuesday, 5/24 @ 8pm--there is a FREE webinar being put on by Your Teen Magazine. (I participated in a free webinar by Your Teen in the fall on Teens & Technology, and it was very useful!)
IS YOUR TEEN SUFFERING WITH MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES?
Interested in learning how you can help your teen be their best? Sign up here for a free webinar this Tuesday night, 8pm ET. (Can't make it live? Register to receive the recording.)

Three-fer Thursday from South! 5/22/2025

Three from South: (1.) Tomorrow--Friday, 5/23--South will host our annual Memorial Day Assembly starting at 1:00 PM. 8th graders have been working hard to prepare their Veterans Projects and a group will present them while our entire school honors local veterans and the fallen heroes of our Armed Services.  Students are encouraged to  wear red, white & blue  to show your patriotic spirit for our veterans and honored guests.  There will be  no student dismissals after 1pm , as it is too disruptive to the memorial assembly.  This year's assembly will be held in the large Gym due to the nor'easter, but guests are still welcome! If you would like to attend the assembly, please enter through the Main Entrance to get a visitors sticker and then proceed down to the Gym. Mark your calendars! All 8th grade Veterans Projects will be on display in the Media Center on Friday, 6/6, for the public to view and explore our students' research. If you're looking for an e...

"Build Up" to the beginning of Middle School!

  South Middle School Build-Up Grade 5 August 19 & 27, 2025 We are excited to show our newest 5th graders around South Middle School. The Build Up program is an optional orientation for our newest Bulldogs to get a "sneak peek" of what to expect at South Middle. Teachers will explain what a typical day looks like as a 5th grade student. Students will tour the building so they feel more comfortable, and they will learn about important middle school topics such as:  Class schedule Behavior expectations  Locks and lockers Clubs & activities Homework Guidance counselors Computers & BYOD (“Bring Your Own Device”) Lunch & recess School etiquette Organization This is a great way for our newest students to connect with South staff and their new classmates. It is very exciting to see where they will spend their middle school years. Feel free to have your child write down any questions and we will be sure to get them answered. Go to the Registration Form on ParentSq...
