2022 Field Day

THIS FRIDAY!

We're looking forward to a fun (and hopefully sunny!) Field Day on Friday, April 29th. There will be several competition events and games for grades K-8, and Preschool will enjoy jumpees, playtime, and snacks.

Southfield has provided Field Day T-shirts for each grade and school will be dismissed at noon. (No Extended Day or Aftercare will be offered.)

As part of Field Day activities, a concession stand will be available to Lower School and Middle School students and their parents. Please refer to the list below and send the designated snack or drink to school with your child. PLEASE SEND THE REQUESTED DRINK SIZE. WE CAN'T USE DRINKS IN 2-LITER BOTTLES SINCE WE WILL NOT HAVE CUPS.

*Please bring items to the front office or the middle school office prior to 3 p.m. on Thursday, April 28th.

Give for Good Continues!

North Louisiana's largest day of giving is back! Last year, you set the bar high. So this year, we need your help more than ever to ensure Southfield School can continue to provide the same excellence in education, facilities, and overall experience.

With a minimum donation amount of only $10, everyone can be a philanthropist. And for as little as $25, you can make a huge impact toward lab and athletic equipment, classroom upgrades, facility and campus needs, and security and safety at Southfield School.

Your donations help us bridge the 15% gap between tuition and the actual cost to educate a child. Simply visit giveforgoodnla.org/southfieldschool to give to the Eagles’ Fund directly!

HOW TO GIVE:

Visit giveforgoodnla.org/southfieldschool from April 19-May 3.
