Jogathon

We need you!

Our 5th Annual Jogathon is Friday October 1st.

The Schedule is as follows:

AM Kindergarten 10 am

PM Kindergarten 1:30 pm
1st - 5th Grades 1:30 pm

For each session we will need two parents from each participating class to help out with set up and getting the kids ready for the event. Jobs involved are: getting the kids in their T-shirts, attaching lap count cards to back of t-shirt, distributing water bottles and escorting the class to the track, tallying the laps for each student.

We will also need volunteers to help with the run.

If you are a classroom parent/helper, please arrive 1 hour prior to the start time. Your help will be invaluable in the classroom getting the kids ready. We will have the packet with instructions in the classroom for you. If you are helping outside with the run please arrive 30 minutes prior to the start time. All volunteers will need to sign in at the front office and get a name badge.

In years past, the Jogathon has been our most successful fundraiser, we need you to help make it a success! Come and cheer our Southgate students on!

Please call Benet Toon 585-8434 or Carol Hansen 539-3768 to sign up.

Welcome Back!

We hope you all had a great summer and are enjoying the changes that come every September.

First we would like to give a warm welcome to our new principal, Vickiy Van Beek and our new secretary, Denise Frantti. We are looking forward to a great year with you!

We enjoyed seeing many of you at the BBQ/Open House. We had a great turn out and are excited to be starting a new year at Southgate! A few items of business. . .

  1. Be sure to check in at the Main Office when visiting Southgate. Thanks you for your patience as we develop new procedures during our year in the Fruitland Building.
  2. Buses drop off in the South Parking Lot. Student pick up/drop off is in the North Parking Lot. Please do not park in the drop off lane or allow your student to run through the parking lot!
  3. Please make sure your child dresses appropriately for playing on the playground and brings water bottles on warm days to stay hydrated.
  4. We are looking for parents to teach new sidewalk games to our students during lunch. Contact Mrs. Woods (lori.woods@ksd.org) if you have any ideas.
  5. We are still in need of volunteers for the PTG board. Please contact us at southgateelementaryptg@gmail.com if you are interested.
  6. Remember to turn in your Two Hour Power Pledge sheet and Volunteer forms. These should have recently come home from school with your child.
