Welcome to Houlton Southside School!

Dear Students and Families,

Welcome to the digital home of Houlton Southside School! We are thrilled to welcome both our new and returning families to a community where every student is supported, challenged, and inspired.

At Southside, we believe in the power of "fresh opportunities." Our goal is to foster a safe, positive environment where students can discover new passions and achieve incredible progress. We see our website as an extension of our halls—a place to find the resources, policies, and updates you need to stay connected.

We firmly believe that a strong partnership between home and school is essential to student success. By working together, we can help our students develop the skills they need to thrive both in and out of the classroom.

Thank you for being part of our journey. We look forward to a year of discovery and achievement!

Sincerely,

Lori Cleary 

Principal, Houlton Southside School
