2022 BOOSTERTHON

KICKOFF TODAY!

Southfield School families!

Today, the Southfield Fun Run fundraiser kicks off during September Flag Ceremony! Our goal is to raise $30,000 for playground improvements. We are so excited about this fundraiser because it will be fun for all our students as they participate in Booster’s legendary character-building program, enjoy the Southfield Fun Run, and boost school spirit, too!

Today we are asking you to REGISTER your family on MYBOOSTER.COM. If Southfield reaches our 65% registration goal, students will receive a POPSICLE PARTY at recess during Boosterthon week. In order to be eligible, you must register before 09/19/2022.

Please check out our school’s Facebook page for more information. Thank you for your support!

Eagle Singers also participate in community service work at The Oaks to sing Christmas carols with the assisted living residents (COVID-19 protocols allowing).

All 5th – 8th grade students who would like to be a part of the Eagle Singers are encouraged to join in the music room of the STEAM building on Wednesdays from 3:00-3:30, and enrollment will be open through September 28th. Fill out the form below or pick one up from Mrs. Shelia in the middle school office.
