Boosterthon starts TODAY! If you haven't registered yet, it's not too late! 

Our goal is to raise $25,000 for Café renovations, and every student that participates will have their name included on a commemorative plaque that will hang in the Café.

All you have to do is register your student(s) at MyBooster.com and share your donation link.

Make sure your students wear their running shoes this FriYAY!
Curious about what's planned for the Café? The main vision is for the Café's aesthetic to reflect the amazing food that comes from the kitchen -- but we also want to take it a step further and give students a multi-purpose space that can be used for various events and STEAM-based activities. Check out the awesome renderings below!
Volunteer your family to support Southfield faculty and staff with snacks and drinks every second TUESDAY of the month. You'll be responsible for pushing the Sunshine cart class-to-class to offer teachers some much-needed (and appreciated) refreshments.

Families may sign up to provide breakfast for the faculty and staff each month on the mornings of the Flag Ceremony. If you would like to help, you can sign up for a date to bring breakfast to the Lower School Lounge with the above link.

Calling all parents! We need a few volunteers to help each morning of this week to help sort and distribute students' daily prizes to classrooms. It should only take about an hour or two each morning!
WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRAVEL INTERNATIONALLY WITH OTHER SOUTHFIELD FAMILIES DURING SPRING BREAK 2022?

Mrs. Gauthier needs your help documenting,
mounting, and hanging art!
Please join us for “Coffee with the Art Teacher” next Wednesday, September 15th, after morning carpool in the STEAM building art room.

We’ll visit, discuss volunteer opportunities in the art room, and get to work. You do not need to be artistic to help!
Southfield family-owned Metro Aviation, recently installed a new eagle cam in the Cypress/Black Bayou area and just caught the first glimpse of the new eagle last week. 

If you're familiar with their Eagle cams, this camera is new and improved – it moves/has several angles and sound is back too. 

The Metro team is fully expecting this eagle’s mate to show up and there to be more “eaglets” to watch hatch at some point!
The mission of the Athletic Department at Southfield School is to aid in the academic, emotional, and physical development of our students through the promotion of teamwork, sportsmanship, and athletic competition. I am excited to continue to get to know each athlete, parent/guardian, and supporter and welcome them to the 2021-22 athletic program. I thank you in advance for supporting the Southfield athletic program and the student-athletes we serve. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to email me at rwalsworth@southfield-school.org.
