Dear Springfield Estates Elementary Families,
It’s been another exciting and SOARing week here at SEES! As we head into the busy holiday season, I want to take a moment to share some highlights and upcoming events that showcase the incredible spirit and engagement of our Eagle community.
Parent Engagement in Action: A big thank you to our wonderful Parent Liaison, Ms. Lili Burga Moncada, who led an informative session during this week’s PTA meeting. She shared valuable insights on how to use ParentVUE and Schoology to stay connected with your child’s academic progress. We’re thrilled to have Ms. Burga Moncada working alongside our families to strengthen those critical home-school connections. If you need assistance from Ms. Burga Mancada you can reach her at lburgamoncad@fcps.edu.
Turkey Bingo is Almost Here! Mark your calendars and get ready for a night of family fun at our Annual Turkey Bingo on Friday, November 22, at 6:00 PM! This is one of our favorite traditions at Springfield Estates, and it’s an evening you won’t want to miss.
Here’s why:
- Our amazing staff will be calling out the numbers, adding a personal touch to the excitement.
- Fantastic prizes are up for grabs, and trust me, you’ll want to take these home!
- Pre-order pizza to enjoy during the event (it’s always a hit with the kids).
We could still use a few more volunteers to help make this event a success. Whether you can assist with setup, handing out prizes, or cleanup, your help would make a big difference. Please check out the flier below for more information and details on how to RSVP or volunteer.
Don’t miss out—secure your spot and pizza today, and let’s make this Turkey Bingo a night to remember!
First Quarter Awards Assemblies: This week, we celebrated our students’ achievements during our First Quarter Awards Assemblies. It was a joy to honor their hard work, dedication, and growth in a variety of ways:
- The Attendance Award celebrated students with outstanding attendance or significant improvement.
- The Golden Eagle Award recognized those who consistently demonstrated top-notch Life, Work, and Citizenship skills.
- Our new Rising Feather Award (introduced this year!) highlighted two students from each class for significant improvements in academics or behavior. Parents joined us to celebrate these shining moments.
- The coveted Super SOARing Eagle Award went to four extraordinary students recognized from among positive office referrals, each spinning the prize wheel for a special reward.
Seeing our students’ faces light up as they received their awards was truly inspiring. A special thank you to the families who joined us—your support makes these moments even more meaningful.
As always, thank you for your partnership and for fostering a community where Eagles truly SOAR—supportive, optimistic, accepting, and responsible.
Wishing you a wonderful week ahead, and I hope to see you all at Turkey Bingo on Friday!
Warm Regards,
April Martin
Proud Principal
