Mrs. Buchanan’s preschool class practiced letter formation and identifying letters today. We also enjoyed playing in the snow and building a snowman!




The SNOW has arrived at South! Please remember to send your child with all their snow gear. We will limit the amount of loaner snow pants so if you know it will be difficult to get snow pants for your child please call the South office for assistance at 988-875-4741.
It helps to put your child’s name on their coat, snow pants. boots, hats and gloves/mittens!!
Snow pants and boots are required to play in the snow :)
