Good morning, Springfield High! Today is February 24, 2023

Students - We need each of you to listen to this important announcement.  We want our school to be safe.  We want our school to be a place that is fight free and a place where any form of bullying is not allowed.  We want you to feel safe on your social media and in person at school.  We need you to be respectful. Ask for help from an adult if you need help, and NEVER choose physical violence as a way to solve your problems. If you see something that doesn’t sound or seem right - tell someone right away.  The students and adults that attend and work in this school deserve to be safe at all times.  Fighting will not be tolerated and we will utilize consequences if you make the choice to bully students in person or on-line or if you choose to fight at school. Help make District 186 a place where everyone is proud to work and learn. 

Entrepreneurship students are making t-shirts to support Mr. Reid. T-shirts are $15.
