Dear Spring Grove Elementary Families,

We are excited to share an upcoming leadership transition within our Spring Grove Elementary PTO. In accordance with our bylaws, our current Corresponding (Social Media) Secretary will be stepping into the role of PTO President for the 2026/27–2027/28 school years.

As a result, the PTO will have a vacancy for the position of Corresponding (Social Media) Secretary.

This role is responsible for:

Managing the PTO Facebook page
Communicating updates and information to Principal
Supporting overall PTO communication efforts
Per PTO bylaws, vacancies in elected positions are filled by a vote of the Executive Board for the remainder of the term.

We are currently seeking interested individuals who would like to be considered for this position.

If you are interested, please email the PTO at sgelementarypto@gmail.com for more information or to express your interest.

We encourage all parents and guardians to consider getting involved. The PTO plays an important role in supporting our students, staff, and school community, and we are always grateful for those willing to serve.

Thank you for your continued support of Spring Grove Elementary.

Fifth grade worm observations! We're studying how energy moves through an ecosystem. Worms, like other decomposers, help return nutrients to the soil for producers to begin the cycle again!
