South Cinco - 10/15/2025

 A few quick notes from South:

(1.) South PTO meeting is tonight in the Library Media Center from 7:00-8:00 PM. Please see attached agenda.(2.) Mark Your Calendars! Parent-Teacher Conference dates will be:
  • Wednesday, 11/12 - 4:30-7:00 PM - Virtual
  • Thursday, 11/13 - 4:30-7:00 - In-Person
  • Tuesday, 11/18 - 3:30-6:00 - In-Person
Information will be sent from your child(ren)'s teachers with specific information for how to sign up for Parent-Teacher Conferences.

(3.) The Bulldog Buzz is back! Last year, South students stepped up to take over our daily announcements, providing a much more interesting reporting of daily activities and upcoming events through the Newscasters Club. With the first 1/8 of the school year under our belts, it's time to hand the microphone back to the voices that matter! Check out this week's episodes of the Bulldog Buzz. 
Congratulations to all the brave students working in front of and behind the camera to share the "buzz" with their classmates! Ms. Evans does all the editing and, supported by Ms. Bannon, Ms. Cottam, and Mrs. MacDonald, oversees the talented reporters and newscasters. Adults at home will now have a highly entertaining way to stay up to date on South's current events, too.

(4.) Spring Musical Auditions start today after dismissal in the Cafeteria. Best of luck to all the performers as they put their talents on display, vying for a role-lead or group--in Annie. The show goes up on April 10 & 11 in the South Cafetorium. It will be the hottest ticket in town, so mark your calendars!

(5.) Today is the last day of Hispanic Heritage Month. All month long, South Spanish students have been joining the morning announcements to share biographies of prominent people from music, art, history, and current events. Their research has helped all South Bulldogs learn more about the contributions of Hispanic & Latino people and gain an appreciation for the role of Hispanic culture in our daily lives. ¡Gracias! Today, 7th & 8th graders are invited to the Hispanic Heritage Month Scavenger Hunt after dismissal. ¡Buena suerte!

P.S. If you've been meaning to order your Unity Day t-shirts, don't forget to place those orders today! Unity Day is one week from today, 10/22!

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...
