Happy Friday South Community!
We had a fantastic week this week at the South! We had our first Fun Run award (for hitting the $15,000 threshold) - Hat & Hood Day and the students loved "breaking the rules" for the day. I wanted to give a HUGE shout out to Grades 3 & 5. They persevered through the first two days of MCAS ELA testing this week and worked their tails off! Grade 4 will be testing after vacation.
We do have a number of exciting events in store to including our (now earned) whole school field trip to Camp Maplewood! More information to come on all of these exciting events. Please see the events and calendar below for reminders on upcoming school events, etc.
We also have some new information on the New Building Project. Please see the blub from the Superintendents Office below:
Would you like to get caught up on the new elementary school building project? Or would you like a refresher about the project? The video posted here provides information about the scope of the project, including the educational plan for a new building, site and building design, project cost, tax impact, and key upcoming dates. The video also includes renderings of what the new building and site will look like. It is less than six minutes long and is well worth your time. Stay tuned for another video that goes into more detail about the elementary school consolidation plan.
Have an amazing vacation!

MCAS Dates & Reminders
Update from Nurse Kaplan
Please remember to send in a change of clothing for your child to keep in the classroom or their backpack. There have been many students ( younger and older) recently who have needed clothing from the clinic. It is always more comfortable for students to have their own clothing when needed rather than trying to fit into clothing from the clinic that is too big or not their style. If clothing is borrowed, please launder and return it as soon as possible. Thanks so much.
