PTO Scoop - September 4, 2018

Temporary PTO Website

Spring Hill Elementary is no longer using the Student Info HUB. Please visit the temporary website at https://springhillpto.org.

Through this site, you will be able to pay your PTO membership dues, contribute to the Fall Fundraiser and purchase Block Party tickets. Please be patient with us as we populate this temporary site and work toward moving to a new permanent platform.
