Hello Roadrunner Families!
We had a great week at Spencer and, as always, thank you for your continued support in your student's learning.
Next week on Tuesday, we will be hosting the special BAS Bond Election at Spencer Elementary. We hosted the election two years ago and will be following the same coordination and safety protocols as we did previously. We will also have extra security in the building. The voting will be held in the multipurpose room with signage to indicate where voters will enter and exit the building.
With this being said, if you are a voter, drop off and pickup time would be a great time to do your voting and it will be open from 7am - 8pm.
Thanks again and let me know if you have any questions!
Mrs. Boyd

3rd Grade
3rd graders will be performing their Michigan History concert on Tuesday, May 12th at 6 p.m. Students should wait with their families in the gym and then report to their classrooms when Mrs. Muszynski makes an announcement (around 5:45 p.m.) Students should wear their Roadrunner shirts.
Spencer Singers
Spencer Singers have performances on Friday, May 15th and Tuesday, May 19th. Please see e-mails from Mrs. Muszynski for the rest of the details.
Parents - Please make sure you pack a change of clothes (that are weather appropriate) in your child's backpack EVERY DAY. This is for ALL students, grades JK-4th, you never know when your student may have a nosebleed, or loose a tooth, or spill food/milk on their shirt, or find a mud puddle outside, or have a bathroom accident. If your student keeps a change of clothing in their backpack, then we can take care of it here, otherwise we need you to bring up a change of clothes. Thank you for your cooperation.
You will find the Drop Off Cabinet near the main entrance to the school. Here you will put those forgotten items that your student may need. Simply fill out the small slip of paper with the student's name and teacher, and a staff member will deliver the item to your student.
**NEW LOCATION**
Our Food Pantry and Lost & Found are both located in the front of the school near Door #3.
Please remember to send your child to school each day with a refillable water bottle with their name on it. Spencer has water refilling stations throughout the building and we encourage students to drink water throughout the day.
Please remember to bring your ID with you EVERY day you come to pick up your student! We frequently have substitute teachers that will not recognize you and will send you back to your vehicle to get your ID before releasing your child to you. This is for the safety and security of your student.
If you are planning to volunteer in classrooms or on field trips this year, you must fill out a background check. This needs to be done each year and if you have students in other buildings around the district, you only have to fill out the form one time and indicate which buildings you would like to volunteer in. Here are the steps to get to the form...
