🚨 Important Weather Update 🚨
Dear South Putnam Families,
As we prepare for a potential snow and ice event forecasted to impact our area late Sunday into Monday, we want to ensure you are informed and prepared. Our priority is the safety of our students, staff, and families, and we’ve been monitoring this weather system closely since the beginning of the week.
Here is our plan:
1. Road Assessments:
• We will evaluate road conditions throughout the district on Sunday evening and again early Monday morning to make the best decision for everyone’s safety.
2. Schedule Adjustments:
• If school is canceled on Monday, January 6th, we will utilize our first built-in make-up day on Monday, January 20th.
• If weather continues to affect school beyond Monday, starting Tuesday, January 7th, we will transition to synchronous e-learning.
3. Device Pick-Up:
• To prepare for potential e-learning, we encourage families to pick up student devices at school today.
As of now, this plan is contingent upon the actual weather conditions as the storm develops. We will communicate updated information on Sunday evening and/or Monday morning once we have real-time data on road conditions.

Congratulations to Mr. Burgess, Mr. Rounds, Senior Danae Cline (IHSAA Student Advisory Committee member), and all of our coaches and players. South Putnam is one of the First Team AllSportsmanship schools recognized by the IHSAA. We are one of the schools who have achieved the state’s highest sportsmanship numbers so far this school year. Thank you for everyone's work and commitment to this priority. South Putnam chose the characteristics of integrity, communication, critical thinking and perseverance as our top "Profile of a Graduate" characteristics. We are all proud that our athletic programs reflect these characteristics as well while we strive to win. It is one of the many reasons our staff and students are proud to be Eagles!
It has been a good season so far for our middle school boys basketball players. Come out and see them compete tonight at home against Cloverdale.
Thank you to our Ivy Tech partners for stopping by to wish us a happy holiday. South Putnam teachers partner with Ivy Tech to get our students college credits. Our students can earn the ICC (Indiana College Core) of 30 or more credits and start college as a sophomore. Some students may even qualify for an Associates Degree. It is incredible what students can accomplish while at South Putnam!
