Hello Parents,
Lori Irelan and I are super excited to be chairing the Spring Fling Committee for South McKeel this year. We are emailing all of our parents who expressed an interest in helping with the Spring Fling on the PTO membership form. The Spring Fling will be on Thursday, May 2nd from 7:30 am – 4:00 pm. It will be located at SMA under the PE Pavilion and the field next to it.
We have some new and exciting things in the works and we can’t do it without your help. Many of you know that our students think this is one of the most exciting events of the year and are already talking about it. The Spring Fling Committee will need 25 volunteers who are able to work the whole day of the event. We will also need several other volunteers for four 3 hr shifts.
I know a lot of us work and need to request the time off so I wanted to give those of you plenty of time. If you are able to work the full day please email me your name ASAP to jenlysak@gmail.com.
If you are not able to commit for the whole day please take a look at the schedule and sign up for one of the other shifts.
We would like to thank everyone for your interest in volunteering for the Spring Fling.

Parents- If you arrive in car line past 8:10 AM, your child will probably be tardy for school. Car line wait times average about 20 minutes if you arrive after 8:10 AM. We begin unloading vehicles at 7:45 AM. From 7:45 AM - 8:10 AM, there is no long wait in the car line. If your child is being dropped off at or after 8:35 AM, he/she is tardy to class. Your child will need to come through the front office door and will receive a tardy slip. Students receive a classroom fine for unexcused tardies. Please be diligent in getting your child to school in plenty of time for him/her to be in the classroom by 8:35 AM.
Due to safety reasons, no students may be dropped off around the track area by the Pre-K Building. Also, students may not be dropped off BEFORE 7:45 AM each morning. There is no supervision before that time. Thank you for your cooperation in helping to keep all of our students safe!
Please remember that all medication that is to be taken at school MUST have an authorization for medication form completed. All medication MUST be brought in by an adult. Students are not allowed to bring medication to school.
We are proud to once again be recognized as one of Florida's A Schools! This only happens through the dedication and hard work of our staff and students, along with support from our families. Thank you, South McKeel Wildcats!

Hello! I'm enjoying my third year at South McKeel. I am very grateful for the opportunity to teach your children and to share my love of music with them. Working at SMA has enabled me to transition from full-time music ministry to teaching in the classroom. I earned my Bachelor's degree from Oberlin Conservatory in OH and my Master's degree in music performance from Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore, MD. In addition to team-teaching with Mrs. Meche in the music classroom, I have the privilege of directing SMA's 6th and 7th grade band.
South McKeel Academy is part
