At Southmore, we are dedicated to providing students with numerous opportunities to learn and grow. Our curriculum is designed to be engaging and challenging, ensuring that each of our students can achieve their highest potential. We believe that education is not just about academics but also about building relationships and a sense of community. Together, we will work towards fostering a school culture that supports and respects everyone.

Your safety and security are our top priorities. We are committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment for all students and staff. Our collective efforts, consistent approach, and dedication from our staff, parents, business partners, and community members play a crucial role in achieving this goal. In our current times it is easy to find fault in others. Fostering an environment of understanding and respect is crucial, especially in our interconnected world. It's important to recognize that our differences can enrich our experiences and perspectives, rather than divide us. By embracing empathy and open communication this next year, we can work together to create a more harmonious and inclusive community at Southmore Intermediate. Physical aggression of any kind SHOULD NOT be promoted nor tolerated as a way to solve issues.

Social media, while a powerful tool for connection and expression, also has the potential to amplify negativity if not used responsibly. As we enter the 2024-25 school year, it's essential to be mindful of how our words and actions online can impact others. By promoting positivity, kindness, and constructive dialogue, we can make social media a space that uplifts and unites us, rather than one that destroys our friendships and reputations and causes us to do things that are not appropriate in a school environment. Let's commit to being respectful, responsible, and positive digital citizens, setting an example for others to follow in the coming years at Southmore. Together, we can create a more compassionate and understanding world, both online and offline.

The mission of Pasadena ISD, the gateway to unlimited opportunity for our culturally rich community, is to empower students to become accomplished, self-directed, collaborative, lifelong learners, who boldly contribute to an increasingly complex and evolving world by engaging them in positive relationships, rigorous curriculum, and innovative meaningful experiences.
