Current events - Three from South

(1.) Tonight is the night! Trivia Night begins at 6 this evening. All teams should be in the cafeteria at 5:45pm! Don't forget to wear your team costume & bring some spending money for snacks (small bills, please!) We'll be selling pizza for $2 and snacks & drinks for $1. It is going to be a blast, so get excited & make sure your brain is ready for some creative trivia challenges!


(2.) Project 351 is a statewide service & leadership program. This year, 8th grader Dori Litzinger is South's ambassador to Project 351 and she is working with her colleague at East Middle to run a townwide clothing drive for Cradles to Crayons. New or lightly used clothing donations can be dropped off in the South front lobby through April 5th. Thank you for supporting children in our region and our 8th grade leaders!

(3.) South PTO has organized the annual April Calendar raffle. Purchase tickets for $5 each, 3 for $12, or 6 for $20. You can print the attached ticket sheet & send with payment to your child's homeroom teacher, or get paper copies in the main office. There is a daily drawing for that day's prize. Each ticket will remain in the raffle unless it is drawn, so a buyer is eligible to win all month! The student who sold the winning ticket each day will also win a prize. Tickets can be sold all month, but the sooner you get your tickets returned, the more chances you'll have to win!

There will be no Homework Lab on Monday, 4/1 & no afterschool help due to a mandatory Staff Meeting.

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...

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...

"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...
