School's out in Kamas! Let the summer begin!

What happens when you challenge a group of elementary students to a pig kiss-off? Principal Flinders found out the hard way. In August, she told her students that if they could get their reading scores above 75% by the end of the year, she would kiss a pig! We all know Mrs. Flinders is an optimist by nature, so did she really think she was going to get out of this? Did she think the students would forget such a challenge? Did she know all along this was her fate at the end of May? We may never know. What we do know, is that the students delivered with their reading scores. And, Mrs. Flinders delivered on her promise. #WeAreSouthSummit #SSElemWildcats #UTPublicEd #ReadingRocks #KissAPig

Look at the proud faces of the new owners of these ceramic monsters. Mrs. Shuppy's ceramic students at SSHS turned these beautiful 2D masterpieces into beautiful 3D hand-crafted masterpieces. What talented students we have both in kindergarten and high school. Mrs. Pulver's students are certainly going to cherish their ceramic monsters for years to come. #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #SSElemWildcats #UTPublicEd #ArtIsBeautiful

South Summit School District will be close for Memorial Day. We want to thank our military families, even though thank you is not enough. May we remember and honor all who died serving our country valiantly to preserve our freedoms. Today and everyday. #WeAreSouthSummit #MemorialDay #RememberAndHonor

Today's the day. South Summit High graduation is here. We are still planning to hold graduation outside at Wildcat Stadium so dress warm and bring blankets! Temperatures will be around 50 degrees. We will be live-streaming the ceremony into the high school auditorium for those who would like to stay warm! Ready or not, South Summit High graduation is almost here. Administration has consulted multiple weather apps and are planning to hold graduation as planned outside at Wildcat Stadium so they don't have to limit the number of attendees. Dress warm and bring blankets! Temperatures will be around 50 degrees. We will be live-streaming the ceremony into the high school auditorium for those who would like to stay warm! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Elx-AI8WfRc #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #ClassOf2024

The Bus Garage still has a lot of lost coats, hats, gloves, water bottles, books and more. Please check with your kids and look to see if you're missing anything. Someone is at the Bus Garage most days between 1:30-4:30 so you can pick up lost items then. If that doesn't work for you, please call to arrange a different time. 435-783-2373

Ladies and Gentlemen: the NUES Teacher of the Year! South Summit High School’s Jolene Christensen was recently named as Teacher of the Year for the Northeastern Utah Educational Services (NUES) region. Christensen teaches Agriculture Science, Environmental Science, Plant and Soil Science and Floriculture and Greenhouse Management. You may know her from the Greenhouse. She's the one who tends so carefully to the beautiful summer flowers you see for sale now and the gorgeous poinsettias in the winter. She'll be presented with the award at an official recognition ceremony at the Rural Schools Annual Conference this summer. Congrats Mrs. C! #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #NUES #RuralSchools

A fun way to end the year for these Monday Mentors-bowling! Thanks to our school social workers who manage this program throughout the year to create a connection and a safe space of belonging for students in both SSMS and SSHS. We have wonderful community partners that help provide opportunities, experiences, and possibilities for students outside of school and home. Bowling was one of those awesome experiences that our students got to participate in and enjoy. #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #SouthSummitMiddle #MondayMentors #SchoolSocialWorkers

Way to go Track and Field team! Great job at state!

Congratulations to Tess, Neve and Gibson for earning the 2024 International Innovation Merit Award at the Real World Design Challenge (RWDC)! The RWDC is an annual competition that provides high school students, grades 9-12, the opportunity to work on real world engineering challenges in a team environment. Each year presents a new challenge that many of our nation's leading industries face. This year the students were tasked with developing an uncrewed aircraft to support wildfire mitigation. Silver Summit Academy’s Engineering Capstone Class (aka Team Yeti ) competed against 21 state winning teams and national winners from around the world, including India, Pakistan and China. Their design, Inferno, won the 2024 International Innovation Merit Award. If you're wondering why the world's engineering experts turn to high schoolers for help in solving today's tough issues? This is why. The students' teacher, Mrs. Rydalch explained that the Inferno is unique because the students, "utilized a generator system for propulsion rather than a battery and used SATCOM to solve a whole host of communication challenges providing reliability and durability to meet mission needs.” SATCOM stands for Satellite Communications Datalink and allows aircraft to communicate with ground users like Air Traffic Control and other ground operations centers using voice or datalink recordings. Mrs. Rydalch and all of South Summit School District is so proud of these students and we cannot wait to see what their future will bring. #WeAreSouthSummit #SSAUtah #RWDC24 #UTPublicEd

South Summit is lucky to have a dedicated Speech Pathologist on board to help our students who have speech and language concerns. We love to see their boost in confidence as their speech skills improve .

Who says Physics is hard? It's as easy as...ice cream! After finishing the AP Physics exam these SSHS students celebrated by making and eating ice cream on a nice sunny afternoon. #WeAreSouthSummit #SSHSWildcats #PhysicsRocks #APPhysics
