South Parents,

Monday's are late starts at South. Did you know that on Monday's students are tardy to 1st hour more than any other day of the week? The building is open at 8am. We would like to ask that students get to class on time on Monday's. We love all of your support and appreciate your continued assistance on getting our students to class on time but with a focus on Mondays :)
