On September 1st wedding bells were ringing. It has been a while since we have had a teacher get married. Ms. Katie Evans our fifth-grade teacher became Mrs. Katie Shaw. She married Rory Shaw the son of Mrs. Kathy Shaw who teaches resource here at Spring Lake Elementary. Many congratulations to them.

Over the summer Spring Lake Third-grade students took part in growing cabbages at home with the hopes of winning a scholarship from Bonnie Plants. They were each provided with one plant. It was amazing to see the pictures coming in from those that took care of them all summer. Someone is going to be eating a lot of coleslaw.

Coming up on the 21st of September from 5-8pm Spring Lake Elementary will be having its annual carnival. There will be pizza, drinks, popcorn, cotton candy, and nachos. For entertainment there will be two bounce houses, an obstacle course, teacher flush, and other games. Please come and support Spring Lake Elementary.

Spring Lake welcomed 135 Kindergartners to school this week. The first day was fullof excitement especially when it came time to decorate the giant gingerbread cookie.After adding the finishing touches of frosting, jelly beans and gummy bears the kidswent out for recess. While at recess the gingerbread man ran away! The kindergartnersspent the next four days chasing him around the school. They learned all about theirsurroundings and had lots of fun at the same time. We are off to a great start at SpringLake Elementary!
