This morning, the Southern Valley teachers & staff were able to recognize 5 staff members who are retiring from Southern Valley. Combined they have served the students of Orleans, Beaver City, Oxford & Southern Valley for a combined 128 years of service. We went to thank these five individuals for all of their dedication to our students.

Congratulations to the Class of 2029! We wish you luck in all of your future endeavors and are excited to watch you for the next 6 years.

Athletic Banquet: You are invited to come TONIGHT, May 15th, at 6:30 p.m. to the Athletic Banquet. We will run an altered program schedule to accomodate the boys participating at District Golf. We will start with girl's sports first, then dual gender sports, and then boy sports. Clarification: Junior High kids will be recognized for the sports they particpated in, but they will NOT receive individual awards. We encourage JH athletes to come see what the banquet is like, but it is not necessary for them to come. Golf parents: Just come when you can and enjoy. No need to bring food. See you tonigh!
