We are planning on a regular school day for tomorrow, Thursday, February 23rd. Circumstances could change overnight. Parents, please check your email in the morning for any updates. You will be notified by 5:30 a.m. if things change.
If you've ever heard of the Runaway Twinkie, then you know this guy. Tom is one of our beloved school bus drivers, whom all the kids adore. February is "Love the Bus" month and we want Tom and all of our bus drivers to know that we love them! Thanks for taking care of our students first thing in the morning and last thing in the afternoon. #wearesouthsummit #lovethebusmonth
The weather is frightening, so we have issued a remote learning day. Parents, check your email for details. #remotelearningday #utahweather
You're never too old to play with play-doh! Last week Mrs. Cummings' FACS (Family and Consumer Science) class delved into the world of play-doh. They made three different kinds to see which would be the best for children to play with in a day care setting. #wearesouthsummit #FACS #southsummitmiddle
Time for winter break at Silver Summit! Enjoy! #wearesouthsummit #ssautah #silversummitelem
Celebrating our Presidents today.
His life story is one he's trying to teach kids not to live. Our new School Resource Officer, Detective Eric Baker dropped out of school, moved out, got a job and found himself living paycheck to paycheck. It wasn't what he wanted in life and he knew he could do better. He joined the military and spent 10 years serving our country before he finally ventured into the career of his dreams: law enforcement. Det. Baker shares his message with students because he wants them to stay in school and not do things the hard way like he did. He loves kids and is happy in his new role. Ultimately his message to students is to work hard, set goals and accomplish them little by little until you get to where you want to be. #nationalschoolresourceofficerday #wearesouthsummit
