Springmill STEM Elementary

Dear Springmill STEM Parents and Families,

We had a fun week last week! Part of it was knowing it was a short week and that we would have a long break and the other part was being able to have holiday activities and celebrations. October seemed to be a very long month that wore everyone out, so the long weekend was a light at the end of the tunnel we all needed!

We have another full week this week, too! Our book fair starts tomorrow. You can shop online now (see below). On Monday and Tuesday, all students will have the opportunity to preview the books available for sale. (There are no toys or other items, only books.) On Wednesday, 4th - 6th graders will have the chance to go back to the fair with money to purchase items. You can either send in money with them or put money into their account. On Thursday, K-3rd graders will also have the chance to do the same. Thursday night, the fair will be open during Literacy Night!

Below are some resources for food banks, free meals, and clothing closets available in the Mansfield area. If there is anything we can do to help you until the government releases funds to support SNAP benefits, please let us know.

Look to the bottom for some pictures or our costume capers from last week!

Yours,

Principal Cara Will

Thanksgiving Break

Mrs. Cramer's 3rd grade class came out on top of our building-wide attendance tournament! They narrowly beat out Mrs. Cambell's 2nd grade class in the finals to earn a Gionino's Pizza party. Great job 3rd grade!

Our 2nd graders used their problem solving skills and speed in an attempt to win a classroom challenge on Wednesday. There were so many smiles and giggles!

Students had fun from Kindergarten through 6th grade dressing up on Wednesday. There were so many creative and cute costumes in all classrooms. Here are just a few glimpses...
