Springmill STEM Elementary

Dear Springmill STEM Parents and Families,
It is so nice to see more sunshine in the evenings, but that alarm clock is going to be ringing way too soon! We have a couple of events coming up, so please take a careful look below. For one, we have our LAST STEM only 2 hour delay for teacher in-service this Wednesday March 12th. We will not have 2 hour delays for April and May (unless the whole district has one for weather).
Our 5th and 6th grade showed off their hard work learning about contributions of Black Americans to STEM fields in a wax museum on Friday afternoon. It was our first wax museum and we learned a thing or two about the acoustics in the gym, but other than that, the kids did an amazing job.
With the warmer weather, please review the dress code policy with your family. No open-toed shoes or sandals and all shirts must have sleeves. If pants or shorts are any version of legging or tight spandex material, students must wear a shirt over top that reaches to the middle of their thigh.
Also, this is a reminder, students are not to bring steel or metal bottles (including Owala, Stanley, or any brand such as these) to school to carry around with them. Finally, students are not permitted to have any device with them at school that can send or receive messages - including phones, tablets or watches. If students are found to have one that is not turned in appropriately at the beginning of the day, there are consequences outlined in the student code of conduct. Please remind students to make sure they are being responsible with their technology.
Have a great week!
Yours,
Principal Cara Will
