Principal's Message


Hello Springwater Students and Families,


Just over a week until we embark upon the 21-22 school year! The first day of school for 9th and 12th graders is Tuesday, September 7th at 7:35am. All grades will attend school on Wednesday, September 8th. Wednesday is a late start schedule: school begins at 8:35am.


Student schedules will be posted in Synergy (both ParentVue and StudentVue) no later than Friday, September 3rd. Bus schedule information will also be updated in Synergy sometime next week. We will notify you when this occurs. Thank you for your patience!


Thank you to all families who have updated their registration verification. If you have not completed the process yet, please see the section below for more information and a link to complete registration.


We had a wonderful time welcoming our incoming 9th graders this past week! Thank you to our ambassadors in grades 10-12 who led activities and supported our next generation of Titans! I am excited to have an amazing group of 9th graders joining our community.


For the latest information regarding Springwater's safety plan and protocols for the school year, please visit this helpful page on Gresham-Barlow's website. We are fortunate to be a small school -- with an entire student enrollment below 200. Two recent changes that have not made it to the website yet: students will have the option to eat lunch outside and masks will be required when students are participating in activities outside during the school day (unless they are eating). If you still have questions, please reach out to us by phone or email! We want to make sure each student and family feels comfortable returning to school this fall.



Stay safe and take care,


Ryan Blaszak

Online Registration

Parent Verification for the 2021-2022 School Year is now open!

Keeping your family's information up to date is crucial to receiving timely communication from Springwater Trail High School and Gresham-Barlow School District and ensures that you can be contacted in case of an emergency. This year all updates can be done online through your ParentVUE account.
