First Day Notes

First Day Notes


Dear Spring Hill families,

What a fabulous first day of school! Our students came into the building with smiles on their faces and ready to learn. I was very impressed with how well our students learned our school routines and walked quietly throughout the hallways.

We want to thank you for your patience as we greeted students and gave them a sticker this morning to ensure all knew how they are going home. We also want to thank you for your patience during Kiss & Ride. We have changed our Kiss & Ride to make sure if it more safe & secure. We are no longer using numbers, but using the last name of families to dismiss students. Please let us know if you still need a car tag. 

Please make sure you have registered for PickUp Patrol. We only have 60% registered and we rely heavily on this system to know how to dismiss your student. Please look out for an email directly from PickUp Patrol to register. The link expires after 24 hours, so keep checking for updated emails. Refer to our website for more information.

Lastly, please review with your student how they will be going home. Some bus routes changed from last year, so it is important for them to know exactly how they will go home.

Thank you again for your partnership, support, and patience!

 

Sincerely,

 

Amy Briggs
