South Macon Elementary

It's officially time! Both Book Fair and Read Across America take place this week: March 2-5th. Students can shop at the Book Fair during class assigned times, before school (7:30-8:00), and on our Family Night, Tuesday, 4PM-7PM. To celebrate Read Across America, students are invited to participate in our different reading themes each day. They will also get small reading prizes and there will be reading guests in our school during the week.

Reminder that Read Across America week begins on Monday, March 2nd! Bring a Reading Buddy to school on Monday (but not a live one)!

South Macon's strawberry orders will be delivered on Thursday, March 5th! You can pick them up at school from 9:00 to 2:00!

We love our bus drivers! Thank you for everything you do!

We are one week away from SME's Book Fair and Read Across America: March 2nd-5th. Information should be going home with your child this week about both of these events.

Thank you to all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore program! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to make sure our teachers get the essential tools they need to help our students succeed. We have already raised over $3,500 for our classrooms!

This safe and easy program is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.
