springville elementary school Dr. Gailen Mitchell, Principal Emergency School Information can always School Supply List for 2010-2011 School Hours: The Springville School is home to 447 students in Grades K-4, and 80 staff members, each school day. Our goal is to develop knowledgeable, responsible, confident citizens with a love of learning to last a lifetime. We encourage our students to create, to take chances, to become active learners and to appreciate and enjoy their learning opportunities. Building strong character, civic responsibility and respect for diversity in our students is an also an ongoing goal. We hope our children realize they can make a difference. At Springville, we stress character education, goal setting, creative spirit and student recognition. Springville’s success lies in a deep commitment to building the total child. This success begins with the entire school community working together for the academic, social and personal growth of our students. We provide many opportunities for our students to perform community service as student ambassadors, buddies for lower grades, safety patrol and school-wide service projects. We are fortunate to have many extra curricular activities for our students including: Twirling Club, First Aide Club, Technology Fun, Theater Week, Yearbook Club, Dance Club, Adventures in Math, Hockey Club, Chess Club, and Sign Language Club/ Recognizing and responding to the developmental needs and varied learning styles of our students is essential. Each child at Springville is treated as an individual, with enrichment or remediation available whenever necessary. A Building Support Committee works with teachers and parents to identify appropriate expectations and instructional approaches for individual students or to address academic, behavioral and emotional difficulties. Providing a safe and secure environment for our students is always a priority. Springville has a School Safety Committee that meets on a regular basis to address all issues regarding school security. Parents are invited to be active participants at Springville. Recognizing the importance of parents, students and teachers all working together, we enjoy an active and supportive Parent Teacher Organization, a Parent Resource Center, a comprehensive community volunteer program and family presence in our school. In addition to fund raising and running numerous family and school wide functions, parent volunteers are seen on a regular basis in our library, our art room, our Parent Resource Center, the playground, the cafeteria, and at our main lobby Welcome Desk. Our volunteer list contains the names of over 200 parents and friends willing to give of their time and energy for our children. We are very fortunate to have a beautiful facility but know the education of our children is much more than a building. At Springville we are committed to continue to learn and grow along with our students.
