Happy New (School) Year!

The start of a new school year is an exciting time, especially for Springfield Public Schools where we are always focused on improvement. Our school year may get off to a delayed start this year because of Hurricane Irene, but it is brimming with promise and exciting developments. This year, we open a new middle school, reducing the student enrollment at three other schools; renovations to the Forest Park Middle School are underway; our magnet school offerings have expanded; and we move into the second year of our Springfield Improvement Framework. As Springfield Public Schools continues in our aggressive pursuit for a culture of educational excellence, I wish everyone a successful 2011-2012 school year and thank you in advance for your commitment and dedication to our students. Let’s work together to make it a great year!
