Join us at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday for the South Putnam Middle School dessert theater, Cafe Murder. Students' families have priority seating, but we still have seats available. In the play, Rosemary Saint-John is a loud, annoying hypochondriac convinced she is allergic to water. What happens when she is sharing her birthday dinner with her four sisters at Cafe Murder? Come to South Putnam on Sunday to enjoy a piece of cake and find out.

Thank you Ivy Tech and thank you South Putnam teachers for providing classes that allow our students to earn so many credits. We’ve had significant growth this school year, because we added Early College courses in math, science and English on top of our very successful existing AP and dual credit programs. Ivy Tech also worked to offer our students on-campus courses in psychology and communication. This partnership helps us ensure our students are prepared for their next steps after high school.

Our 8th Grade Advanced English students with Mrs. Houser are wrapping up the semester by performing Pyramus and Thisbe. It is a story of lovers kept apart and a tragic misunderstanding.
