 Message from Mrs. Briggs
Dear Spring Hill Families,
We have had a whirlwind of a week! With two wonderful musical performances by our second and fourth graders, and our STEAM, Literacy, & Science Fair Night, we couldn't be prouder of our students! Thank you to all our parent and teacher volunteers who made our events so successful. It was wonderful learning about all of the creative and detailed science fair projects and it was a joy to see our students engaged in science, technology, art, math, and literacy!
We hope you enjoy this warmer weather and the long weekend!
Sincerely,
Amy Briggs
