Welcome Back

It was so good to see all the kids back on Wednesday.  They came back excited and happy.  In a word, it felt right.

The students’ first day was a success.  A good start on the first day of school is so important for setting the tone for the year.  Every year, my awe of the teachers continues to grow as I watch them work so hard the days, and even weeks, before school to ensure a great beginning to the school year.  Teachers meticulously prepare their rooms, make sure that the name tags for each student are perfect, and that every child has a special connection in their classroom.  The teachers at Springer are truly a wonderful bunch.

I welcome back all our families to the 2011-12 school year.  And, if you are a new family to Springer, I especially want to welcome you.  I invite you to contact me at any time if you have any questions or concerns.  You are going to like it here; Springer is truly a wonderful community.

Yard Duty positions available: I am looking for people to serve as Yard Duty monitors at lunch.  I have both paid and volunteer positions available.  "Walking the yard" at lunch is a great way to interact with the kids and get a sense of our school climate and culture.  If interested, please contact me.

Principal PE help needed:  I am also looking for parent volunteers to assist me on Friday afternoons with Principal PE.  I will be running some PE activities for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd graders every Friday after lunch and could use some parent help.  If interested please contact me.

We're off to a great start and I look forward to seeing all of your throughout the year.
