DC RAFFLE
Throughout the rest of this month., students can buy South Experiences raffle tickets to win a chance for some memorable South Experiences. Tickets are on sale in the Cafeteria on Fridays and the drawing will be held on 10/31. Proceeds benefit the 8th Grade DC Trip. Good luck to all the hopeful buyers!
AMBASSADORS
There will be an informational meeting for the Ambassadors Club Tuesday after school in the Media Center. See Ms. Ricci with any questions. If you have another committment tomorrow and cannot attend the info session, you can still become an Ambassador! 

TRAFFIC ADVISORY
National Grid is conducting exploratory digging on Peach St as we speak. They will soon begin gas main replacement along the length of Peach St. The company has been working with Braintree DPW who consults with the Superintendent and they have assured us they will do everything they can to limit the impact on South, including weekend work as they approch the school. However, be advised, this monthslong project will likely affect traffic to varying degrees throughout the school year. I will advise families of any disruptions I am made aware of, but the best "defense" will be simply a good habit of leaving early if you drive to school!

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!
