We love Mr. Evans! The kids love him and the staff loves him. He loves coming to school in the morning and getting serenaded by the early morning music class. Thanks for making the lives of our students better every day, Mr. Evans! #NSCW23 #wearesouthsummit #sselemwildcats

Happy Counselor's Week to Mr. Peterson at South Summit Middle School. Obviously the students love to hang out with him and his height makes him very popular on the 9 square in the air court. #wearesouthsummit #NSCW23 #southsummitmiddle

Last week South Summit Middle School's 7th and 8th graders were asked that age-old question: What do you want to be when you grow up? Career Day was a success as students were able to choose three different career presentations to attend. Parents and community members were invited to share their careers with students. There was everything from a nurse to a firefighter to a fishery biologist. #wearesouthsummit #utpubliced #southsummitmiddle

Ever wonder what UVU Live Interactive students do in their classes? In this Astronomy class a lesson about the moon led to a lively discussion about Leap Year. You may think that Leap Year occurs every four years, but there's actually more to it. If you recognize one of these students, ask them what the exceptions are. #wearesouthsummit #utpubliced #uvu
