Dear Spring Mills Shark Families,
We made it to our final few days and our last Shark Nation Notes of the school year. As the school year draws to a close, it is with a heart full of gratitude that I write to you for the final time as your principal. Serving our students and working alongside such dedicated parents and staff for the past three years has been an incredible honor and privilege.
Your support and partnership have been vital to our shared success, and I am profoundly thankful for your commitment to our school community.
As I retire and embark on the next chapter of my life, I carry with me countless cherished memories and the gratitude of having been part of such a special place. I wish all of our students continued growth, joy, and success in their educational journeys.
With heartfelt thanks and warmest wishes,
Sarah Bentley, Principal
Spring Mills Elementary

School Folder Ad Sponsorship
Ad Sponsorship Deadline is Friday June 7.
National School Folders has been providing take home school folders for multiple years at zero cost to our school. Due to ever increasing printing and shipping costs, National School Folders is asking for help from the community in sponsoring ads for the 2024-2025 school year so that the folders will continue to be free.
There are two ways to help sponsor our School Folder:
*Business sponsorship: $350.00 (a discounted ad price) which includes a business ad on your school folder for the 24-25 school year.
*Personal sponsorship: $75.00 which includes your name on the back of the folder as a
sponsor.

Circle Drive Reminders - Please share with other family members who may pick up your student.
Thank you to everyone following the guidelines making the circle drive a smoother experience for your community! Please see reminder below and share these rules with other family members who may pick up your student at times.
Arrival/Dismissal - updated information
- Our building doors open at 9:10 am. Please do not drop off early, as there isn't adult supervision outside of the building. You may only use the front loop for drop off
- Upper El Centrum doors close at 9:15am If your child arrives later than this, please use the front doors of the building.
- Safety first! Drivers will need to remain in their lane until all students have been unloaded; you are not allowed to pass other cars if your children unloaded first.
- Also for safety reasons, drivers and other adults must remain in the car during pick up and drop-off. If your child requires help getting in or out of their vehicle please park in the parking lot and walk to the doors to get your child/pick your child up.
- Always have your green name sign clipped to your passenger visor during afternoon pick up - this keeps things moving quickly for the entire Spring Mills community. Please let your child's teacher or the office know if you did not receive a sign and we will send them home with your child.
- When possible, please move your child's seat to the passenger side of the vehicle. Children should not be exiting out into traffic, but rather on the curb side.
- The school day ends at 4:08 pm. Please do not arrive before 4pm. DO NOT EXIT your vehicle from the circle to meet students.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION!
