April is Occupational Therapy Month, and we’re sending a huge THANK YOU to our incredible OT, Mrs. Sarah Arenas! Mrs. Arenas' compassion, creativity, and dedication help others live fuller, more independent lives every day. Mrs. Arenas is more than a therapist — she is a guide, a motivator, and a real difference-maker. Let’s celebrate the work Mrs. Arenas does and the lives she touches. We appreciate Mrs. Arenas this month and every month! #SpringdaleFamily

Our popcorn fundraiser has started!

After reading The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle, our students were inspired to bring the story to life! In the Curiosity Corner, they explored their creativity by building their own flowers—each one as unique and colorful as the imagination behind it. These hands-on creations helped them prepare for writing, giving them a concrete connection to the story and a fun way to express their learning. We love watching their ideas bloom! ...and yes, Mr. Jackson got in the action too! #SpringdaleFamily

THIS SATURDAY- Be an extra in a feature film- spread the word! #SpringdaleFamily
