Dear Springfield Elementary School Community,

As we continue moving forward during unprecedented times, our primary goal is to provide the best education possible in the healthiest and safest way, while providing flexibility to students, families, and employees as we navigate the COVID-19 pandemic as a community.  Although we will continue to provide a full day, five days per week in-person learning schedule for all students choosing this option, we are prepared to pivot to an enhanced version of Virtual Springfield or offer a hybrid learning experience, as the ever-evolving situation requires. Please know that although circumstances may change throughout the 2020-21 school year, our commitment to the academic growth of children and their social-emotional health will remain our singular focus, no matter the context. 

There is little doubt that the 2020-21 school year will perhaps be the most challenging we have faced; however, I know that our school community will come together in the face of this challenge and continue to excel as we provide rigorous and engaging learning opportunities in a physically and emotionally safe environment for our amazing students.  I know we’ll do this because we are Springfield, and that means something.    

Sincerely,

Craig Vaughn

Superintendent/Principal
