A big shout out to the Class Office, Class Advisor Crosby and Bhattacharya, and all the parent and faculty volunteers who helped make our June 6 2021 Senior Celebration an amazing evening for our Seniors.  The Class of 2021 was celebrated and danced the night away.

Special thanks to Theresa Fitzpatrick, our amazing event planner who coordinated all the pieces to make an amazing night!  And many thanks to Daniel Boschetti, who navigated and coordinated all the Foodtrucks and the process of delivering tasty meals at all our events.

Congratulations to the Class Office for making your Senior Year a terrific journey and celebration for all of our Seniors!  Grateful to David Murphy and his custodial team and Mr. Knoedler for your help, and thank you to all the Newton South Faculty who joined the Seniors to celebrate their year!

Cheers to all the parent and faculty volunteers who made these events possible for our Seniors.  It took a village, whether it’s bathroom duty, set up, registration, check-in, beverage tables or clean up. Thank you!

The PTSO has encourages parent volunteers from all grades to support our events.  Thank you for supporting our students and school community.  All volunteers are welcome! 

Every year, the PTSO organizes SouthFest, an after-prom celebration for Seniors and their guests.  Due to the pandemic, we organized an outdoor event this year for Seniors only held at the Hyde Community Baseball Field/Playground.  It’s a casual event filled with fun lawn games including spike ball, mini-golf, giant Jenga, giant Connect4, and pickup basketball. Catering will be provided by The Boston Sausage Guy from Fenway.  This is a Free Event for our Seniors.

Parent volunteers sign-up: https://signup.com/go/MSqdNae.  Thank you!

Thank you to all the families who donated to our $4,000 campaign this past month.  We have raised $5,700 which will be used to support our May 18th, June 3 events, and help the Class of 2021 by reducing the cost of their ‘traditional prom’ with all the necessary rentals for an outdoor event on June 6.

Last week, the PTSO became the sponsor for the 2021 Senior Celebration (“alternative to prom”) that will be held on June 6.   Due to this change, some additional expenses are necessary to ensure a safe and festive celebration (breathalyzers, security, decoration, and additional rentals).

We would like to raise an additional $2,000 to help further transform the outdoor tent space and Fieldhouse parking lot for a red carpet evening for our Senior Celebration and also to sponsor our faculty and staff to join the celebration at our June events.  The cost of sponsoring a faculty member is $20 to cover food/beverage expenses.  We expect 40-50 faculty members.   Thank you for considering.  We encourage all families from all grades to contribute as our faculty and staff support all our students at South.
