Annual Events

  • The Spring Auction, Dinner, and Dance is for parents in the community.  It is one of the biggest fundraisers of the year, and is a spectacular event that requires the help of many volunteers.  The Auction is held every year at Springer. 

  • By volunteering just 2 to 3 hours per month, our Asset Building Champions build relationships with young people by reading selected books and leading classroom activities related to the story with another adult partner. The ABC program goals are to increase the number of developmental assets in all children and adults, increase the number of caring adults that students interact with at school, and create a common language and vocabulary about respect for the school community. Volunteers are trained each month by Project Cornerstone’s program leads at Springer School on the first Friday of the month from 8:30-9:30 am, September through May. Training sessions will utilize a curriculum guide to lead discussions and leaders will provide suggestions, demonstrations and handouts. For more information, visit the Project Cornerstone page.

  • The PTA sponsors one Book Fair in the Fall each year. 

  • The Junior Olympics is a district-wide track and field event for all 4th - 6th graders.  Volunteers are needed to help train Springer athletes or work a shift during the event.  

  • The STEM Expo is open to Grades K-6 to submit  projects. It is scheduled during the Spring. 

  • Springer holds a number of Spirit Days throughout the year.  The themes for the days are selected by the student council.  In the past we have held pajama day, Disney day, crazy hair day, Hawaiian Day, etc.  These will be announced in the Thursday Word and will be put onto the Springer Calendar as the events are set.

  • The Staff Appreciation Committee honors Springer's teachers and staff by treating the them to monthly appreciation activities and hosting a Spring luncheon for all teachers and staff.

  • Springer School participates in the National "Walk to School Day" each October.  Students meet at the front or back of the school in designated locations and walk together to Springer. 

  • The Walkathon is the biggest and best of Springer's traditions.  It is a fun, annual event with tremendous participation from students, alumni students, staff, and Springer families.  Students walk laps to earn prizes with music, food, an auction, and other activities available. Students gather sponsors who pledge donations for their efforts.  This is a great opportunity for students to raise funds and improve their school.  As the October date gets closer, look in the Springer Buzz for more details.
