In an effort to keep all students safe and traffic moving, we ask that students go directly to their vehicle upon dismissal. This will allow parents/guardians to exit the loop in a timely fashion. Also, if your child walks home, please encourage them to go directly home. We greatly appreciate your help in this matter.
As you may or may not be aware, the Springfield State Bank was sold to Horizon Bank. This change has caused us to ask a favor from all of you. If you write checks to any of our schools or for any of our activities, we ask that you refrain from using glitter, neon, or light-colored ink pens. These checks do not register with the equipment that Horizon Bank uses. Thank you for your help in this matter.
The Westmont Student Council would like to thank everyone for the generous donations of birthday kit supplies for the Everett and Jude Evans Birthday Box Fundraiser. We collected enough items to create 52 complete boxes, and we have several extra items to go towards more of these fun boxes.
