Dear Southside Eagles, 


I am so excited to welcome our families, both returning and new, to Southside Elementary! I hope this letter finds you well and as full of eager anticipation for the beginning of the new academic year as we are.  


For those of you who are new to our community, Southside is a S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) certified school that emphasizes creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking. Our commitment to our students and families is to provide a learning environment that is joyful, cognitively engaging, and thoughtfully designed for student success. 


We are also committed to helping our students develop strong behavioral values. Our students S.O.A.R. by being SAFE, ON-TASK, having a great ATTITUDE, and being RESPONSIBLE. With your partnership, we will achieve our mission to equip all students for a promising future. 


On Wednesday, August 28th, parents and students are invited to Open House from 4:00-6:00PM. This is a perfect time for families to meet their child’s new teacher, alleviate some of those back to school jitters, and drop off supplies in the classroom. 


Finally, before the business of school and activities are upon us, I want to pause and give gratitude to all those that have worked so hard to make sure the year begins as smoothly and efficiently as possible: 


With much regard, 

Jennifer Smith, Principal
