End of Year Reminders
-If your student has medication in the Nurse’s office (either prescription, inhalers, epi pen or over the counter medication), please plan to stop by the Nurse’s office to pick up and sign out the medication on or before the last day of school, which is May 19th, 2016. Springfield Public Schools policy prohibits students from carrying medications to or from school at any time. Please come by the Nurse’s office between 8:20 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Remember, school gets out 2 hours early on the last day,
1:35 p.m. Any medication that is left after this date will be discarded.
-Several LOST and FOUND tables have been set up in the Project Lab. You are welcome to stop by before or after school to look as well as checking in during the school day. Please plan to claim your students items by Thursday, May 19th. After that time time, all items will be donated to the PTA Clothing Bank.
-Grade cards will be held for students with outstanding library, lunchroom, and device fees. Please be sure that you have paid your students fees to ensure delivery of their grade card on the last day of school.
-If you have not turned in your student information sheet to pre-enroll your student for the 2016-17 school year, please do so by Thursday, May 19th. This will ensure that you DO NOT have to re-enroll your student in August. If you have questions, contact Ms. Denise in the main office 417-523-3800.
iPad Collection
We will be collecting all iPads and chargers on Monday, May 16. All students must make sure and return both the iPad and charger on this day. If you want to return your child's iPad earlier feel free to do so. We will be taking inventory and notifying the district of anyone who does not return their iPad and/or charger.
Yearbook News
There was a delay with yearbooks this year. The good news is...we will be able to include pictures of Fun Night too which we haven't before. It also means there is still time to order one...please send $17 in an envelope marked yearbook with student's name and class or order online.
We will then make sure everyone who purchased one receives it either at summer school or another way.
Thanks in advance for your understanding!
