Colt Weekly Update

Message From The Principal

Hello Colt Families,

We have an exciting week ahead at South High School. Here is what you need to know.

🎉 Congratulations South Football! 🎉
A huge shoutout to our South football team for their exciting win against East and for bringing the cannon back home to South! Way to go, team – Cannon Booms Black! 🖤

👩‍🏫 Attendance Matters
Parents, we need your partnership in helping students arrive at school on time and ready to learn each day. We’ve noticed an increase in tardies and absences since the start of school, and your support can make a big difference. Together, we can keep our students on track for success!
