During the month of October and November, we will administer the Panorama survey. This is a survey that BSD administers every year to help gauge the social-emotional status and mindset of our students. As well as the connectedness our students have to our school. This survey is online and takes about 20-30 minutes to complete.

There are two parts to the survey, which will ask students to self-reflect on their sense of belonging, expectations, and classroom learning strategies. The second part will ask questions about mental health, diversity and inclusion, and cultural awareness and action. Springer Middle School gathers the results of this data to help drive actions within the MTSS system, develop goals for our School Success Plan, and screen for students who may need intervention.

We appreciate our students and families for supporting Springer’s cellphone-free environment. All cellphones must be turned off and secured in Yondr pouches throughout the entire school day. Following this expectation helps students stay focused on learning, engage with classmates, and build stronger face-to-face connections.
