Greetings,
It’s staff appreciation week at Spring Lake Park Schools. We have a tremendous staff who work hard with care and compassion each day to truly know each student and create the conditions for each student to learn. We’re taking time this week to recognize them and share our appreciation for everything they do. If you’d like to join us, consider sending a note. Words of appreciation go a long way.

Information Sessions for SLP Schools Online K-6 for 2022-2023
As I’ve communicated for the past several weeks, we intend to continue to offer SLP Schools Online for K-6, but the experience will be quite different than this year. We will be sharing the design for next year with special consideration to what will look and feel different from this year’s experience. Please mark your calendar and plan to join me for one of the following WebEx sessions to learn more (we’ll share links closer to the date):
- Thursday, May 19 (9-10 a.m.)
- Thursday, May 19 (1-2 p.m.)
- Tuesday, May 24 (5:30-6:30 p.m.)
It is May! There is a forecast for warmer and drier weather. I am hopeful…. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to me at 763-600-5057 or kfehri@district16.org.
Take care,
Kim Fehringer
