A huge shoutout to SS Motortrendz for spoiling our Southside staff during the first week of school! The treats and drinks in the lounge were such a thoughtful surprise and kept us going strong as we kicked off the year. We appreciate your generosity and support for our teachers and staff!

Mrs Matt's 4th grade science classes had a fantastic time with a science challenge called "Saving Fred"! This hands-on activity requires students to use their problem-solving and collaboration skills to help a gummy worm (Fred) get into his life preserver and onto his boat. It's a fun and engaging way to practice scientific inquiry and teamwork.
3rd graders had a great time measuring, testing and recording physical properties of matter today during science. Students worked cooperatively and had a lot of fun at the same time.

Thank you Southside PTO for the amazing breakfast treat this morning. All of the donations were greatly appreciated and the teachers and staff really enjoyed being spoiled this morning.
Ms. Josey, Southside Principal, used the time students were waiting for the bus to read a story to them. She loves interacting with our students and making them feel loved.

Happy third day of third grade at Southside Elementary! The excitement is building as we dive into new adventures and learning opportunities this year. Let’s make it a fantastic journey together! Here’s to friendship, fun, and fantastic discoveries!
📢 Attention parents! 📢
Just a friendly heads-up that, due to the start of the school year and our focus on establishing new routines and procedures, parents will not be able to join their students for lunch until after September 8.
This allows us to ensure a smooth transition for all students, especially our youngest learners, as they get used to the cafeteria environment and their lunch schedule. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we prioritize a safe and organized start to the school year.
We look forward to welcoming you back for lunch visits soon!

🚗 **Attention Parents!** 🚗
Just a quick reminder that you must have a Southside issued car rider tag to pick up your child from school! If you don’t have one, please stop by the office to get yours.
If you arrive without a tag, you’ll need to check in at the office to verify your identity. No child will be dismissed through the car lane without a car tag.
We had an incredible day on Friday with our teachers parading through the neighborhood! They brought so much excitement and energy, getting everyone pumped for the return to school on Tuesday.
A huge thank you to all the teachers for their enthusiasm and to the community for showing up to support our students. Let’s keep that spirit alive as we gear up for another fantastic school year! 🎈💙 #BackToSchool #anchoredinexcellence #becasuewerewildcats
Hope to see you soon!
