Dear Spruance Elementary Families,

Welcome back to the 2024-2025 school year! I hope everyone had a wonderful and restful summer. The Spruance team is excited to welcome our students back to the building on August 26,2024 at 9am.

I’m pleased to share that our students made great academic gains last year. We made gains on the STAR assessments in reading and math across all grade levels. We also saw improvements on the PSSA state assessments.

These results are a testament to the hard work of our students, teachers, and families. I’m confident that with your continued support, we will build on this progress and help our students achieve even greater success this year.

Just a few reminders as we prepare for the new school year:

The first day of school is Monday, August 26,2024 for all students. Our school hours are 9:00am to 3:39pm.

For kindergarten students the first day of school is Monday, August 26,2024. However, for the first week of school August 26 through August 30th kindergarten students’ school hours will be 9:00am to 12:30pm. Starting September 3, 2024. Kindergarten students will follow the regular school hours 9:00am to 3:39pm. Kindergarten teachers will be reaching out to you regarding a meeting with you that will be scheduled during those days. Additionally, Kindergarten will be scheduling a meet and greet on Friday, August 23rd from 1:30-2:30 so you and your child can meet the teacher before school begins.

Please save the date for back to school night which is September 12, 2024 from 4:30-6:30. Our annual Title I parent meeting will take place on the same day from 4:00-4:30pm.

I’m looking forward to an outstanding year ahead. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Here’s to a fantastic 2024-2025 school year!

Sincerely,

Ms. Garnica
Principal, Spruance Elementary School
