🌟 February Resiliency Trait: Problem-Solving 🌟
Please join us in congratulating Ms. Connell and Ms. Allgood for being recognized for exemplifying the resiliency trait of Problem-Solving this month!

✨ “Always accepts new problems that come their way and solves them with grace.”
✨ “Always willing to step in and assist with situations and can be a calming effect.”

Yesterday we welcomed the FBHS graduating seniors back to Southside for their Senior Walk — one final walk through the halls where so many memories first began before they head off to their next chapter in life.
Our little pirates, faculty, and staff lined the halls to cheer them on and give them the warm send-off they deserve. We are so proud of all they have accomplished and cannot wait to see where life takes them next!
Once a Pirate, always a Pirate. Congratulations, Class of 2026! 🎓✨
