Panther Updates Parent Edition
May 2018
SIGN UP FOR EXPLORE! (SUMMER LEARNING) TODAY!!!!
I highly encourage you to enroll your student for EXPLORE soon. You can follow this link to enroll or call the office and Ms. Traci will enroll for you. Take advantage of Springfield Public School's Summer Programming. There is not another district in the state of Missouri that offers a program like ours. Hands-on experiences, differentiated instruction, and free meals through June and July. Assessment evidence has shown that students who are enrolled in the EXPLORE program have a smaller or no reading and math regression leading into the following school year. That's is amazing!!!
Last Day of School is May 22nd- Early Release @ 1:35
Teacher Appreciation Week is MAY 7th-11th- How will you show your appreciation?
3rd, 4th and 5th Graders will be MAP Testing April 30th-May 7th and Make-up Tests through May 11th
