As we finish the school year, we were proud to welcome graduating seniors from Springfield High School and Thurston High School for their annual Grad Walks. Seeing our former students return in their caps and gowns was an inspiring reminder of what hard work and perseverance can accomplish. Thank you for your partnership and support throughout the year, and we wish all of our families a wonderful summer!

Student Technology Update for 2026-2027 Student Technology Update for 2026-2027

Springfield Public Schools is updating elementary student device procedures for the 2026-27 school year based on feedback from families and staff. Elementary students will continue using district-issued devices during the school day, but devices will no longer routinely go home unless specifically checked out for educational purposes.


All elementary student devices, chargers, and dongles must be returned to Mt. Vernon by Friday, June 5 so the Technology Services team can inspect, clean, repair, and prepare devices for next school year. Families can help by returning all accessories and encouraging students to remove personal stickers or labels before turn-in. Springfield Public Schools will continue maintaining a one-to-one student device ratio, and additional information about procedures for next year will be shared before school begins.
