Ground has been broken and the recently passed Bond Construction Projects are underway! Thank you to our Springport Community for the generous support for our current and future Spartans! Phase 1 is set and ready to begin! This phase includes upgrades to security at all buildings, boilers replaced at SMS and SHS as well as a new concessions plaza at the Springport Stadium. Springport Public Schools is proud to partner with Elite Construction Company and TowerPinkster Architectural Company to complete the estimated 3 year project which will also include a newly redesigned state of the art Cafetorium which will impact all students during their educational journey at SPS! So please excuse our dust while we do what we must to enhance the educational experience for our students and staff at Springport Public Schools! They certainly deserve the much needed improvements! GO SPARTANS!!!

Hello and Happy Sunny Monday Spartan Families!
Construction season is about to begin as Phase 1 of the Bond Construction project will be getting underway during the week of April 27, 2026. Phase 1 will include upgrades that you may not readily see on a daily basis such as security upgrades at each building by adding a door monitoring system at each location which will allow the office staff to communicate with guests as they arrive at each building. You most likely will not see the replacement of two boilers in the district, one at SMS and one at SHS. The project that you will definitely see is the renovation that will take place at the athletic stadium. The fencing has gone up and work is scheduled to begin next week!
For your reference I have included an image that shows the traffic pattern shift while construction is taking place. Please accept my sincere thanks for your patience and understanding as we begin the much needed district upgrades.
If you have questions regarding Phase 1 of the construction project or about the construction project as a whole, please feel to call or stop in to Central Office as I would be happy to share any information with you!
Have a GREAT day and GO SPARTANS!!!

Hello and Good Afternoon Springport Elementary Families!
The purpose of the communication today is for an Important Reminder Regarding the SES Student Drop-off and Pick-up Policy.
After recent consultation with law enforcement and to ensure the highest level of safety for our students, we would like to provide a firm reminder regarding our arrival and dismissal procedures. , As of yesterday we are strictly enforcing our handbook policies regarding drop-off, pick-up, late arrivals and early pick-up of students. Please be reminded of the current language in our elementary handbook:
Designated Drop-off/Pick-up: All parent drop-offs and pick-ups must occur behind the school in the car lane during regular arrival and dismissal times. We use a zipper merge and form two lines across the back of the parking lot to reduce the congestion in the drive between the Middle School and the Elementary. Please request a pick up number from the office if you do not have one.
Late Arrivals: If your student arrives after 7:50 AM, you must park in the front parking lot and accompany your child into the office to sign them in.
Early Pick up: If you are needing to pick up your child early for an appointment, you will need to pick up prior to 2:20 PM so that we can have your child dismissed prior to our end of day procedures. If you have a doctor note, this will be an excused absence.
Thank you very much for your understanding and we appreciate your cooperation and commitment to keeping our school environment safe for every student.

Have a wonderful Wednesday and GO SPARTANS!

Respectfully,

Mr. Sedlar, Ms. Kuntz and the Elementary Office Staff

Good Afternoon Spartan Families!
I will begin with a 'THANK YOU' to my administrative team, my teachers and staff, our School Resource Officer, our Chief of Police and the surrounding agencies that came to SPS and were able to secure our campus within a matter of minutes. This was a total team effort today and everyone involved deserves every bit of thanks for keeping our students and staff safe and secure and while the day ended with a half-day type dismissal, every child and adult walked away unharmed, that to me is 'mission accomplished'.
I am including the Press Release for you as a point of reference to the incident that took place today. While the matter is still being investigated I am happy to report that at no time was there an 'active situation' on our campus. Situations like this are scary and difficult for everyone involved, students and staff alike. This is a good reminder as to why we practice the drills that we do in any given school year. Should you choose to process this incident with your child and/or your family this weekend, please be sure to reiterate to your child(ren) that the school staff has only their best interest in mind and do everything humanly possible to keep them as safe and secure as possible while they are in our buildings each day.
I will end with thanking our families for your patience and understanding as my staff and I diligently worked to keep our students safe and secure today which allowed them to get back home for a wonderful weekend.
I wish you all a nice evening and a wonderful weekend...and GO SPARTANS!
Respectfully,
Terry A. Sedlar
