Principal's Message
Dear Parents and Guardians:
Erin’s Law, House Bill 6193 was signed into law on January 24, 2013. This law requires schools to implement an age-appropriate sexual assault and abuse awareness and prevention curriculum for grades pre-K through 12. It is recommended that four communications a year on Erin’s Law be made available to all students.
Mr. Pacini and his staff will be presenting at our schools. The dates for the student presentations at each building are as follows:
● Spring Grove Elementary School – October 14, 2026
● Richmond Grade School – October 15, 2026
