Cold Spring Families,

I’m excited to share a few highlights and important upcoming dates as we head into March.

Spelling Bee Champions

Congratulations to Graham MacPhail and Cara Snodgrass, our Cold Spring School Spelling Bee champions! They will represent Cold Spring at the SBCEO Spelling Bee in the coming weeks. Way to go, Graham and Cara!

Yearbook Cover Contest (New This Year!)

We’re doing something unique this year. Students are designing our yearbook cover! If your child would like to participate, submissions are due April 7. Contest details are included below.

No School: Monday, March 2 (Professional Learning Day)

There is no school on Monday, March 2, as our teachers will be engaged in a professional learning day with our Leader in Me coach and trainer, Denise Rapa. We’ll be focusing on Franklin Covey’s 7 Habits, continuing to strengthen our practice, and planning engaging Habit-based learning experiences for students.

Principal’s Coffee: Tuesday, March 3

Please join me for Principal’s Coffee on Tuesday, March 3. I’ll share an update on what we’re doing with Leader in Me at Cold Spring and how we’re bringing the 7 Habits to life on campus. All are welcome!

Read Across America Day (Celebrating Tuesday, March 3)

National Read Across America Day is officially on Monday, March 2, but since we’re not in session, we’ll celebrate on Tuesday, March 3. If you can, please send a photo of your child reading to the office. We’d love to feature student readers in our next newsletter!

Coming Up Soon

  • Variety Show: March 12 at 4:00 p.m.

  • Occupation Spirit Day: March 20 (dress as your future career!)

  • Parent-Teacher Conferences: March 23–27

  • Spring Break: March 30–April 3

It’s hard to believe we’re already approaching spring. March is going to be full of joyful learning and community moments.
