Southside Preschool

Ms. Aileen and Ms. Kasey’s toddler class made play-dough turkeys to start off our Thanksgiving activities!

Room 4 have loved spending time outside -- running, laughing, and soaking up the beautiful weather! There's nothing better than learning and playing under the sunshine.

Little officers were on the case today in Ms. Kelsie and Ms. Liz's class! They worked together to match police badge numbers and put them in order -- practicing number skills while keeping the classroom safe and fun!

Today Ms. Tabitha and Ms. Ashley's class explored the 5 senses through interactive learning stations. They engaged in activities that allowed them to see, hear, smell, taste, and touch in a fun and exciting way. Hands-on learning makes exploring the world around us even more magical!

Mrs. Valerie and Mrs. Allison's class has spent the past few weeks engaging in outdoor play, exploring bubbles, and participating in imaginative play. By integrating these activities, the class supports toddlers' physical and cognitive development while fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity about their surroundings.

💛 Go Gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness! 💛

Today was a special day across Southside! Our football players, cheerleaders, and Steppers started the morning by greeting students at the elementary and preschool, then spent time in classrooms reading with them.

We are proud to Go Gold together in support of Childhood Cancer Awareness Month! 💛 #GoGold

What a night! At Meet the Southerners, we introduced our incredible athletes, cheerleaders, dancers, band members, and more!
Our students showed off the spirit and pride that makes Southside shine. Here’s to an amazing season ahead!

Back to School Sensory Play Day
Our preschoolers had so much fun exploring water play, shaving cream, spaghetti noodles, chalk, and more!

Sensory play isn’t just messy fun—it’s learning in action. Activities that engage touch, sight, sound, and movement help children build fine motor skills, strengthen problem-solving, spark creativity, and even support language development.

Hands-on play = big smiles + big learning!
