Springfield High School

Attendance Office Phone Number - 525-3111

Students, If you're not feeling well during school hours, please visit the nurse's office instead of texting your parent directly to go home. Our nurse will then assess your condition and contact your parent for you. Reminder that phones are not allowed during class time. Not following this procedure creates a disruption for many offices as well as adults in the building. Thanks for following the procedure that is in place and helping to keep the school running smoothly!

Senators show perseverance by having the mindset to face challenges with determination. Positive self-talk can be a powerful tool to help you to persevere through tough times and pursue difficult tasks.  Great athletes like Serena Williams and Tom Brady, as well as the genius Albert Einstein all maintained that a positive mindset was a factor behind their success.  So choose a phrase like “Keep going” or “I can do this” and repeat this to yourself when faced with a challenge. Stay strong Senators!
