Dear Sprague Families,

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Sprague mothers.  You deserve this day and many, many more in honor of ALL you do.  There is not enough praise in the world.

On behalf of all of the Sprague staff, thank you for the warm wishes, delicious breakfast, creative treats/snacks, ice cream sundae bar, and the lunch that was out-of-this-world!  All of these thoughtful events brought joy to all and for that, we are grateful.  Having said this, your warm thoughts and appreciation is all we need.  Thank you!

Congratulations to our Sprague fourth-graders on successfully completing math MCAS early last week!  

We wish our third-graders the best as their math MCAS testing takes place Monday and Tuesday this week and our fifth-graders as they round out MCAS season on Thursday and Friday of this week.  You’ve got this, third and fifth grade!
