As you know, this year, New Canaan’s South Elementary School is proud to celebrate its 75th anniversary of educating and inspiring generations of students. Since opening its doors in September 1950, the school has been a cornerstone of the community, shaping the lives of thousands of children and serving as a gathering place for families, staff, and neighbors alike.
Preparations continue for our NEXT event to celebrate this milestone as we will hold a community Fun Run/Walk on Friday, May 1st, from 4:30-6:00 pm. All of New Canaan is invited! We would really love to have alumni, former faculty, staff, parents, and of course, STUDENTS of South School join us for the event. The Fun Run/Walk will take place on and around South School’s property, and will include a jog/stroll (your choice!) around the school and some time afterwards to enjoy DJ Nico, an ice cream truck, and the company of one another! If you are going to attend, please complete this brief form so we have an idea of how many people will be joining us: South 75th Fun Run / Walk. The form has a link to complete a small participation fee. Please RSVP by Friday, April 24th.
As South School turns 75, it remains dedicated to the same mission it had at its founding: to provide a strong foundation for students and nurture a lifelong love of learning. We hope you will join us at this event to celebrate!
