Celebrating Students at South County Middle School

The mascot for South County MS is the mustang. It is so fitting that the school's Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) committee is called the Stampede Committee! A group of students is working to develop lessons that teach their peers what appropriate behavior looks like in the classroom. Each week, South County students who embody these character traits are honored during morning announcements. Learn more about how the school developed the program in this short video.
