Today @SouthProvSchool MS science Ss did a lab. Ss used rubber bands, beans & paperclips to represent worms, snails & crustaceans. Ss tested various beaks (represented by spoons, toothpicks & tweezers) & saw which beak is best for which prey. @jgriffith352 @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

Today is National Rock Paper Scissors Day! Our #phoenixfamily had mini battles throughout the day, and we ended our day with one final battle. Congratulations to Ms. Paige, our 2025 Rock Paper Scissors Champion! #rethinkingalted @UCPSNC @AGHoulihan @DiazTeaching @jgriffith352

I know @m_a_berryhill missed @oldenboi_84 as she presented today, but I’m so excited that other schools got to hear about the job they’re doing facilitating the @SouthProvSchool mentoring program! #RethinkingAltEd #MentoringMatters @jgriffith352 @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

Today @SouthProvSchool we also used our staff meeting for celebrating & learning. @jgriffith352 was recognized for Assistant Principals Week for all his hard work & kind ways! Then we used discipline scenarios to calibrate how we assign behavior points. @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

SO PROUD of @m_a_berryhill & @oldenboi_84! They presented at the NCDPI regional networking session to share about how a combo of MTSS, community engagement & love for our Ss = a successful mentoring program @SouthProvSchool! #RethinkingAltEd @jgriffith352 @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

Today @SouthProvSchool we continued our Munch Madness Snack Bracket w/our four sweet matchups! Staff got to taste & vote on their fave sweet treats! I am sad as most of my picks were already eliminated. 😭😂 #RethinkingAltEd @jgriffith352 @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

Ms. Reinecke’s class @SouthProvSchool did musical paintings in class recently. They created abstract art pieces in layers to represent their chosen music piece. They look great on our crossover hall! #RethinkingAltEd @jgriffith352 @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

So proud of @oldenboi_84 for being named a UCPS Influencer for December! It’s so well deserved! Thankful to @MrAckersClass for recognizing all the ways Mr. Olden positively contributes to @SouthProvSchool and the community! #RethinkingAltEd @jgriffith352 @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

We love graduation day! This evening, we hosted our graduation ceremony. We celebrated the graduation of 11 seniors who have done amazing work and will be missed in our building! Good luck and congratulations! @DiazTeaching @AGHoulihan @UCPSNC

In the remaining days of school, you may see some out of character behaviors from some students. Remember that not all students look forward to summer break. For some students, school is their safe place… where they receive consistent food, where they feel most successful, where they are surrounded by kindness and love, and where they can just be themselves. All behaviors are communication. Respond first with empathy and compassion. Thank you for everything you do for our kids! Have an amazing and well-deserved summer break! #maslowbeforebloom Join a community of 32K caring adults at the “Maslow Before Bloom” Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/maslowb…
