South High Class of 2020, the Lowry Bridge will be lit in your honor, tomorrow evening, Thursday, June 18. If you plan to take photos, MPS and Hennepin County asks that you:

• Follow health guidelines regarding social distancing and group size.
• Do not gather on the bridge, which wouldn't make for good photos, anyway.
• Use one of these vantage spots: Marshall Terrace Park, Edgewater Park, Gluek Park, 42nd Ave. North Bridge, Broadway St. Northeast Bridge.
• Being mindful of curfew hours.

Looking for places to eat, sleep, work and have fun this summer? Check out the MPS Summer Resource Page which also lists crisis and counseling resources, as well.

Shout out to ELL teacher Nicole Nagell for pulling together this slick Community Resource Site for Emergency Housing, Food Pick-ups, Donations and Legal Help for our South High community!

With strict social distancing protocols in place, South High invites the community to join us in tending to our campus gardens. Interested? Sign up here, and if there are no immediate dates listed, check back. There will be!

Perhaps, there are no words for Anh Tran-Nguyen's graduation photo. Stunning, breathtaking, heart-stopping are arguably descriptors for emotions it evokes. The background's stark, yet he's smiling. In his own words, Anh shares the story behind his photo and events leading up to it. 

Heartiest congratulations to 2020 graduate Brian Saldivar Villafan, Act Six Scholar and recipient of a four-year, full tuition scholarship at Augsburg University. Brian will major in Computer Science, and possibly New Media, too, with a concentration in Game Design!

Pleased to announce that this year's recipient of the Sons of the American Revolution Bronze Citizenship Medal is South High's Cor Barnhill, nominated for "leadership and advocacy in the theater department." Congratulations, Cor!

Cheers to Beatrice Kennedy-Logan selected for back-to-back All State Choir Honors. Selected in 2019, she  has been selected again in 2020, from a field of thousands of students statewide. She will sing Alto I in the Soprano/Alto Choir in February.

Twenty-nine French language students at South participated in this national contest, organized by teachers, Sarah Esworthy and Kristen Gupta. Regrettably, due to the pandemic, not all students were able to test, but we are pleased to congratulate award winners. See results.
