Southern Elementary Family Resource Center

☀️ Thank you Toyota for the amazing Spring Break bags for our kiddos last week!
I had the BEST helpers who I'm confident got a great workout delivering these awesome bags to the classrooms 💪

I love awesome helpers that make projects easier and so much fun! We are in the final days of our school-wide incubation chicken hatch!

🐣 Josiah & Joseph came down on Day 1 to help inspect place all of our eggs before placing them into the incubator
🐣 Layla helped marked down our days on the chart
🐣 Beckett helped move "mini beckett" from our incubator in the display case to the brooder in Wing 3

I want to give a BIG HUGE shoutout to Scott County 4-H Poultry Club for bringing this experience to so many kids across the county! We have big plans for this program next year and are excited to work with Poultry Club to make our vision come to life!

🌙 Laundry @ Night with GMS Youth Service Center at Lola's Laundry was a great first evening event of the year!

🫧 1️⃣,2️⃣3️⃣0️⃣ lbs washed - just in time for Spring Break 🤩

Thank you to Lola's & Toyota Driving Possibilities for making our evening event possible ✨️

Today during essentials, students participated in a Mental Health Day 🧠

🌟 Kayla & Patience with Mountain Comprehensive Care Center had conversations and activities centered around the importance of being a peer pressure and decision making 🫂
🌟 Annie with WEDCO District Health Department talked about hygiene (specifically hand washing) and how it can be connected to mental health 🧼
🌟 Julie and Tabatha with New Vista KY read "The Reflection in Me" & had a mirror activity 🪞

Our hope is that students take the lessons and techniques they learned today and put them into practice during their everyday lives. Ask your student to teach you about some of the lessons they learned today 💙

🙌🏾 We want to give a giant shoutout to our community partners for coming in and helping create such an impactful day for our students!

💡 Mrs. Rogers and I are always looking for suggestions of partners and activities to add to these events - send us a message if you have any ideas 📬

🎪 Thank you to everyone who made it out to Family Night

Hi Stallions! We’re excited to invite you to our upcoming community-wide meeting, which will take place before parent conferences and our parent night. We’ll open the doors early for anyone who wants to join us! We’ve revamped our meeting format to give us more time to brainstorm and really dive into some great ideas that we can put into action afterward. This month, we’ll be focusing on attendance, and we would absolutely love to hear your thoughts on how we can improve attendance at Southern. Southern Elementary - Georgetown, KY
