Woot! Woot! South is 100 years old!
South Collegiate Alumni Association (SCAA) is organizing a special weekend over May 26–28, 2023 to celebrate South's 100th anniversary, and you can now sign up to join in on the celebrations!
You have two ways to participate!
1. Sign up for the SCAA celebrations
SCAA has organized a variety of events over the weekend, for all alumni to reminisce and reconnect with fellow students and coaches/advisors/staff. Check out the SCAA website for details of their events and to register/participate in their anniversary celebrations. Highlights include:
- A Pub Night on Friday from 7:00 to 11:00pm will launch the weekend's festivities. It will be the perfect opportunity to reconnect with your peers from clubs, teams, band and school shows, as well as coaches and staff advisors. You'll also have the opportunity to spontaneously arrange casual small groups for brunch and/or lunch over the weekend, or catch up over drinks before our class dinner on Saturday evening.
- Decade Rooms, the Reunion Store, and self-guided school tours will be available Saturday from 9:30am to 4:00pm, and on Sunday from 10:00am to 2:00pm.

Can you help us find contact information for your fellow classmates?
We managed to connect with well over 100 of our classmates for our 50th reunion in 2021, but there are still a number of people that we haven't found yet. We'd love to be able to invite them too to our Class dinner in May.
We will continue to update this website to continue to reconnect us all and also communicate our plans about our class celebrations within South's 100th Anniversary in May 2023. We look forward to reconnecting with you all, in one way or another.
