Dear Cold Spring School Families,
As we return from the long weekend, the excitement is building here on campus as we enter the final stretch of the school year.
We cheered on our top 4th through 6th grade mathematicians at the Santa Barbara County Math Super Bowl today. These students represented Cold Spring with focus, creativity, and teamwork with a love for problem-solving. Our 6th Graders placed 3rd overall! Sixth grade student, HB Barlow, placed third, and fourth grade student, Mason Riley, placed fifth. A special thank you to Mrs. Crop, Mrs. Wooten, Mrs. Gomez, Mrs. Orwig, and Mr. Orr, who all helped organize the event. Much gratitude to our Cold Spring parents who supplied a delicious pizza lunch for all participants.
In other news, a heartfelt thank you to our incredible first grade students for their stellar Patriotic Sing performance last week. Their voices filled the auditorium with pride, gratitude, and joy, and their message of unity and respect for our country was felt by all. If you missed it or would like to experience it again, you can watch the full performance here.
Last Friday, we welcomed Principal Katherine Nimmons to campus for the day. She stepped into the role of Principal for the Day with enthusiasm and a true sense of leadership. From leading morning announcements to making classroom visits, she embraced each moment with care and confidence. It was a joy to see her in action.
Tonight and tomorrow, May 28th & 29th, at 6pm, our Sixth Graders perform Disney’s High School Musical, Jr. Don’t miss out! Please bring the whole family to support all the hard work they’ve put in to entertain you. You can also watch it from the comfort of your own home via the following livestream link: https://www.youtube.com/live/CPPywpl4O2M?si=9zXQhvJMbYvPcvBo
As we look ahead, please take note of the following upcoming events:
On Wednesday, June 4, our sixth graders will head to Westmont College for a special end-of-year field trip.
Then on Friday, June 6, students and staff will take the field for the much-anticipated Staff vs. 6th Grade Kickball Game, a fun tradition that brings laughter and friendly competition to campus.
On Monday, June 9, we’ll celebrate with our annual All-School Beach Day at Miramar Beach, a favorite way to reflect, relax, and enjoy time together as a school community. Please be sure to get in any permission slips and / or driver registration forms to the office in a timely manner.
Finally, Tuesday, June 10 will be our last day of school with early dismissal. We’ll honor two very special traditions that day: our Kindergarten Moving Up Ceremony and our 6th Grade Promotion Ceremony.
Please note: June 6th marks the last day of Dolphin Center for the school year.
We are excited to make the most of these final weeks together as a school community. Thank you for your continued support, partnership, and enthusiasm as we close out another remarkable year and welcome summer.
Warmly,
Dr. Amy Alzina
Superintendent/Principal
