Dear Sprague Families,

Walk/Ride/Roll-to-School Day was a huge success with 233 walkers/riders.  It was brisk, but a great way to start the day.  Thank you for the school spirit and the support.  Thank you to Ms. Flitsch and the many parent volunteers for making the event happen.

The first round of conferences were productive and highly successful.  Thank you for the continued home/school connection.

Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend!

  • No School in honor of Veterans Day

  • Thank you to the many men and women across the country, and local to Sprague, for their service!

Lunch Transition

  • Our continued goal is to have a picnic-style lunch outside for as long as we can

  • At the end of this past week, we made quick decisions to have lunch indoors due to the chilly outdoor temperatures

  • However, next week’s temperatures look mild so we plan to be outdoors

  • Soon enough we will officially be making the transition from outdoor lunch to indoor lunch in the gym for the winter season

Recess and Zones and Before School Zones

  • This year’s schedule has grade levels participating in lunch/recess with just one grade level at a time.  Classrooms across the grade level mingle with each other during the lunch/recess time. 

  • During the second recess of the day, with more than one grade level present, we continued to implement the recess zones so students across grade levels were not mixing/mingling with each other

  • As of November 1st, we lifted those recess zones so grade levels are mixing/mingling with each other – this refers to outdoor times

  • We will continue the before school grade level zones in the morning when students arrive to school

Surveillance Testing – Tuesdays

  • Please note that surveillance testing will be a regular weekly occurrence happening on Tuesdays at Sprague
