South Middle School

I currently have a student a sms that transferred from njh last year. This was truly a blessing for him I felt he had alot of growing up to do so he found himself in places he did not belong at times but I also feel once youve been in trouble njh will not let it go his name was always brought up in one thing or another and it was a never ending story. Before considering sms we as parents were looking at another school and his records were needed at the other school well this student was accepted but given basically a bad rap by the njh faculty. Every child deserves a chance we all make mistakes even as adults dont let a childs young history follow them always if we are lucky like when I was in school we will have mentors and very positive people.

I am currently an 8th grade student at South. I attended South in 7th grade as well. My parents and I have been extremely pleased in my two years here. The teachers work very well together, and they push us (students) to do our best. They are always willing to help with work, as well as other problems we may have. There are many extracurricular activities including: golf, soccer, basketball, baseball, softball, swimming, football, and cheerleading. There are also clubs such as Beta Club and FCA among others. It seems that sometimes South gets the reputation of being the 'bad school' in the county, but I think we are no worse than Huntland or North. South is an awesome school where your child would be well-educated. Go Trojans!
