Mrs. Reiter's 3rd grade class celebrated Flashlight Friday in honor of Read Across America Week! They had so much fun, and it’s an awesome way to get kids excited about reading. 🔦 📚

Mrs. Piercy’s class wrapped up their fairy tale unit this week. They spent time reading The Little Red Hen and The Little Red Hen Makes a Pizza, talking about the lessons in each story and how they are similar and different. Today came the most fun part… making their own pizzas! The students loved getting to create their very own just like in the story. There were lots of smiles, lots of excitement, and a little bit of pizza sauce along the way! Hands-on learning helps bring stories to life, and these little learners had the best time being chefs for the day.🍕❤️

Thank you to everyone who attended our Family Reading Night! It was wonderful to see so many families from our Hawks community come celebrate reading and enjoy a fun evening with us. Your support and participation help make events like this so special for our students. 🩵🖤📚

Congratulations to our 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Maurer, on receiving the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce Teacher of the Month Award! 🎉 We truly appreciate all she does for our students, staff, and school each and every day. Her dedication, kindness, and commitment to her students make a difference in so many ways! So well deserved! 🩵🖤

Our 3rd and 4th grade team competed yesterday at the ROE Brain Games! This year’s theme is fantasy fiction, and our team took on a variety of creative and challenging events! We are so proud of Stella, Kimber, Logan, and Jesse for representing our school so well. Their teamwork, creativity, and hard work truly showed!

Today Mrs. Maurer’s 2nd grade class had Ag in the Classroom! Students learned how pizza is made and discovered where all the ingredients come from! What a fun way to learn about agriculture! 🌾🚜🍕

This month our House Groups focused on empathy. Throughout the month, students collected donations for JCAC, and as a special thank you, they brought some adorable pets for a visit! 🐾 We are so thankful for JCAC and for all of our students who generously contributed donations. Your kindness and compassion truly make a difference! 🩵

Just a quick reminder about our Pet Drive for the Jefferson County Animal Shelter. Students who wish to donate items may do so by Thursday, Feb 12. Some supplies the shelter needs are disinfecting bleach, mopping liquids, dryer sheets, paper towels, trash bags, treats, toys, collars, blankets, leashes, puppy pads. Thank you so much!

Spring Garden will have school tomorrow. There will be a few changes to the bus routes due to turn around issues. Susan's bus will not go down Goshen and will have to stop on 142 at Donasue Ln. If you live past that on 142, you can meet Susan at Donasue at 7:20am in the morning and at 3:15pm in the afternoon. Carrie's bus will not go down Forbes Ln and Brad's bus will not go down Tiffany Rd. These routes will be in effect until further notice. Tomorrow's lunch will be cheeseburger, carrots and fruit. There have been a few menu changes for this week but it is updated on the school app. We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow!!

Congratulations to our Spring Garden alumni, Sam, Aidan, Jeremiah, Trenton, and Korbyn, that were part of the MTV varsity team that got 3rd in state yesterday. We are so proud of all of you!!

Dear Spring Garden Families,

We are excited to announce that our school will be hosting a Pet Drive to support our local Jefferson County Animal Control shelter. We are collecting donations of pet supplies to support the shelter, which provides essential care and comfort for abandoned and rescued animals. This month in our House Groups we are discussing Empathy and what it means. Some ways to show empathy are offering comfort, support, and help. The students will have a friendly competition between their House Groups to see which group can collect the most items. The winning House Group will receive a prize. This is a wonderful opportunity for our students and families to come together and make a positive impact in our community.

Details of the Pet Drive: Dates: February 2 -12, 2026
Location: Send pet items with your child to school or drop off food to the office at either school.
Items Needed: There is a list of especially needed items provided.

We encourage every family to participate, as every donation makes a difference.
Thank you for your support in making this event a success!
Warm regards,
Mrs. Beckham
