DESCRIPTION PROVIDED BY THE SCHOOL BUILDING
South Elementary is a first and second grade school. There are five sections in both grades. The Wonders reading program was implemented in 2014. The Reading First philosophy has prompted more instructional time and consistent teaching methodology across the K-3 reading curriculum. A Reading Coach is on hand to develop data for the teachers and work with all teachers regarding best instructional strategies. South Elementary has a school wide Title program. Students are in small classes to encourage the development of basic skills. All levels of special education and an "At Risk" program are available. A Title Reading teacher is located at South in order to keep Reading groups smaller and meet the varying needs of the students. South Elementary is fortunate to have volunteers and paraeducators working with classroom teachers to foster the development of basic skills and overall learning for all students.
