A huge thank you to our Kennett Police Department for keeping our students safe! Each morning, the department positions themselves near our schools to monitor traffic and ensure a smooth, safe start to the day. Officer Hale was near KMS this morning.
Your presence makes a difference — protecting our students, staff, and families as they arrive at school. We truly appreciate your partnership in keeping safety a top priority. 💛🖤 #CommunityFirst #StudentSafety #ThankYouKPD

It's September! That means it's School Attendance Awareness month. We want to see your face everyday! Be on the lookout for weekly attendance tips throughout this month. For today's tip, why not come to school just so you can see these smiling faces! #WeAreSouth 🖤 💛


Ending the week with another kindness recognition. De'Von Hollywood was nominated because he took his time to pack up a student who was out of the room. She appreciated his help so much! #WeareSouth #KindnessBloomsHere

Kindness Blooms at South! This year we will be recognizing random acts of kindness at South. If a student is caught being kind, they can be nominated by staff.
Our very first recipient is Raylin Franklin. Yesterday, in Library she got a book that she really wanted to read but found out a friend had been waiting two weeks to read it so she gave the book to her classmate instead. Mrs. Furby nominated Raylin for her great act of kindness! Please join us in congratulating, Raylin! She received flower seeds to plant more kindness! 💐

We need your help! Parent portal letters were sent home today with students missing back-to-school paperwork. If you need assistance completing the paperwork, please call the school office at 573.717.1130.

Tshirt Sales Ending this week! Get those last minute orders in. Shirts will arrive 7-10 days after order is placed so we hope for them to be in toward the end of September!

It's cookie dough time at South! Sales end on Sept. 12. 🍪🍪🍪
