Bulldog's Woof - Tuesday, 12/20

(1.) Tomorrow we'll get ready for the nor'easter bearing down: coax the warm air northward to keep the snow at bay with your S'Wintery Mix outfits for Wednesday this Spirit Week! Let's see your creative Summer/Winter mash-ups! Thanks to South Student Council for keeping us all merry and bright this week.


(2.) Thank you to all the families who have been plying the staff with treats this week! There was a long-standing tradition at South of students & their adult caregivers delivering baked goods to the Teachers Room all throughout the last week before the December Break. After a few years of pandemic-driven hiatus from communal food, it means so much to walk past the Teachers Room and hear the lively conversation and laughter of our Bulldog staff savoring the thoughtfulness of your gestures of appreciation. Please don't tell our cardiologists, dieticians, or significant others about the sheer quantity of sugar and complex carbohydrates, but thank you all!

(3.) Friday is a full day of school. (Wishful thinking aside...) Today was the last day of Homework Club this year. We'll start back up in January 2023. There will be a late bus all week, so students can stay after if you make an appointment with a specific teacher.
(4.) 8th Graders' Adult Caregivers can order a Yearbook ad to send a shoutout to your graduate or to celebrate the whole class. All ad orders are due by January 28th.

(5.) South Basketball tips off Thursday against the BHS Freshmen teams. Girls are undefeated going into the match at 3:00pm and Boys are 2-1 for the season as they take the court at 3:45pm.

South Cinco - 3/31/2025

  Many of us were slow getting to South today, after returning late on Saturday night from the annual 8th grade Washington DC trip. It was a great trip! Thank you to Mrs. Norris and Mrs. Clark who coordinated the trip, to all the teachers who chaperoned overnight for 4 days, and to the students who represented South well! (1.) CALENDAR RAFFLE Tomorrow is the official first drawing of the South PTO April Calendar Raffle! Bring in all sold tickets to enter every drawing! Tickets & rules were sent home from homeroom.

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...
