Field Day thank yous!!

We're sending a HUGE thank you to all the volunteers who helped make the Field Day Snack Shop and teacher hospitality luncheon a big success...

Becky Rasbeary gets several gold stars for purchasing all the snacks and food, making signs, getting things organized and staying up late to make super-awesome pickle shots that were a big hit among the students. THANK YOU!

Mr. Sides helped everyone keep their cool by providing buckets of ice and a helping hand for several hours. THANK YOU!

Mr. Bowers was extra popular among the faculty and staff. Despite the heat, he continued to stand over a hot grill and cook up amazing hamburgers for the South Hills team. THANK YOU!

And so many more people made this event come together smoothly: Sharla, Lacee, Amanda, Tiffany, Will, Sarah, 5th graders Joey Perez and Jonathan Cervantes...and we KNOW there were others!! That's the great thing about South Hills. Folks will jump right in and lend a hand, no matter what!

Go Wildcats!

Members make the difference!

The PTA Spring Membership Drive will be wrapping up soon. Many thanks to everyone who has submitted their dues! Your support will help us get the 2010-2011 school year off to a strong start.

It's not too late to join! Submit your dues now before and after school. Lacee Howard, our membership chair will gladly collect them and give you a hearty "THANK YOU!"

Each student whose family submits dues will be rewarded with a no-uniform pass. And the class with the most participants will earn a free food/drink pass for field day.

Thank You!!!
