Today, we proudly honor and recognize the brave men and women who have served our country. We are grateful for the courage, dedication, and sacrifices of our veterans, both past and present, who have helped protect the freedoms we enjoy every day.
At South Middle School, we are proud to take time to recognize these heroes and teach our students the importance of gratitude, respect, and appreciation for those who have served.
To all our veterans, thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your commitment to our country. We honor you today and every day!

November means the weather can turn any time. Be ready for inclement weather:
1. Remember FZSD will use online learning days (AMI Days) first 2. When inclement weather is in the forecast, remind students to bring home whatever they need for an AMI Day, including Chromebooks and chargers. 3. Make sure your contact information is up to date so you are the first to know if there is a change to the school day.
Bookmark go.FZSD.us/AMIDays for all of the information you need, including PreK-5 AMI Day packets and be prepared for inclement weather.
