Carter was nominated by SEL Teacher Mrs. Olstad and here is what she said about him: "Carter was on his bike ready to leave South Point when he saw a younger student having trouble with her bike. The chain had come off and she didn’t know how to put it back on. Carter wasted no time. He pulled his bike over and put the chain back on her bike without anyone asking him to do so. Carter demonstrated a high level of responsibility and caring for a fellow student."
Congratulations Carter - we are so proud of you!

Our assembly theme was "Emotion Coach" and we also focused on our school rules of Respectful, Responsible, and Safe. Being your own Emotion Coach means you help yourself understand and handle your feelings by paying attention to them, naming them, and choosing a safe and helpful reaction. We compared this to the players in a baseball team. Just like those players we need to practice the skills to handle emotions to be successful. We will be learning and practicing those skills throughout our year at South Point.


We’re excited to have these new tables in our lunchroom and think they look great! 💚
Go GreenWave! 🌊💚
