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

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

JAN. 10, 2023: Due to snow accumulation, schools in the South Summit School District will implement a two-hour delayed start this morning.
In doing so, the district will follow its standard procedures with schools starting two hours later than their normal start time. Students will still be dismissed at the regular school end time.
Because of transportation issues and other logistics, any before-school programs and field trips scheduled to begin prior to the late-start time are cancelled.
All district school busses will also be on a two-hour delay and they, like private vehicles, may be slowed due to inclement weather.
As always, parents may choose to keep their student at home anytime they feel conditions are unsafe to travel to school. When those situations arise, school administrators and teachers will work with students so that they can complete any schoolwork that they may have missed.
As the second quarter wraps up, let's take a look back and see what has kept us busy. #wearesouthsummit #utpubliced

This past season he starred in High Valley Arts musical "Miracle on 34th Street" as Kris Kringle. Congrats on a great show, Destry! #wearesouthsummit #schoolbusdriversrock
