I have an update to share with you concerning a new staff member. Please help me welcome Mrs. Megan Beskange as our new secretary to the assistant principal’s. Megan comes to us from the Grosse Pointe Academy where she served in a similar position. We are thrilled to have her on the South team!

Student Shout Out
I want to give a shout out to all of our student leaders on campus - whether you are a leader in a mentoring group, student class council, student government, club, sport, or in the classroom, your leadership drives the positive culture of the school.
Assistant Principal's Message....
As we head into Mid-Winter Break, we want to wish our entire South community a restful, safe, and well-deserved time away.
We hope this break provides an opportunity to recharge, spend time with family and friends, and return refreshed. Thank you for your continued dedication, positivity, and support of our students and school.
Have a wonderful and safe break!

STUDENT ACTIVITIES/CLUBS
Students.
Time to join a club! Most clubs at South are open to new members year-round; so grab a friend, stop by a meeting, and find something that fits your vibe. It’s a great way to meet new people and get involved now that your season’s over.
Freshmen, if you skipped clubs earlier because things felt hectic; now’s the perfect time to try one out!
Check out the updated club list for students below.
(Parents — here’s your version too! Yours doesn’t include student contacts, thanks for understanding!)
And don’t forget: the annual Student Activities Fee helps keep all our awesome clubs running. If that’s ever a hardship, just reach out to your counselor or myself; we’ve got you!
Good evening,
We at Botmasterz are hosting our first ever robot reveal! We would love to see you there to see our team and what we've been working on this season! All information is in the flyer below, please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
