It's a Wonderful Time of the Year

It's that time of year when our children get that little spark in their eyes and their excitement grows each day.  The temperatures have dropped and some days the children arrive at school all bundled up like little Eskimos, as the song goes.  Others have come to school in their pajamas and slippers ready for an exciting Pajama Day.  Fourth graders have arrived to school carrying beautiful Geo Cities they created while studying geometry.  Some classrooms have sharpened their math skills by creating Geo-Houses with graham crackers, frosting and candy.  First graders enjoyed a visit with South Elementary retired teachers as they read a variety of winter stories aloud.  As these activities draw to a close along with 2011, I want to take this time to extend warm wishes to all of our South Elementary families.  We will see you in 2012!

Holiday Music Concert

Please join us for our annual Holiday Music Concert this Thursday at 7:00 pm.  Our strings, band and chorus will perform some holiday classics for you and help get you in the holiday spirit.  You will be impressed by our talented third and fourth graders!

Holiday Shopping

Does your child need to do a little shopping for the holidays?  Why not stop by SES and let him or her do some shopping here???

The PTA will be opening their Holiday Shop tonight, Tuesday, December 6th and Thursday, December 8th from 6:30-8:00 pm.  They will be set up right in our front lobby.  All proceeds will go to the PTA and will be used for school activities like Field Day t-shirts, special assemblies and field trip buses, to name a few.  We'd love to see you!
