Greetings from our new SPA Co-Chairs!
July 08, 2024
Dear Springmont Families,
Welcome to all new families, and welcome back to our returning families! We are writing to introduce ourselves as your Springmont Parent Association (SPA) C0-Chairs. We are excited for this great honor to serve the Springmont community and hope to continue the amazing work that Elizabeth and Kristin have done over the last two years!
- Steve Little has Carter, who will begin his final year in Ms. Destiny’s Primary class, and Eli, who has completed the Toddler program and will be starting his first Primary year with Ms. Rinku this school year.
- Caro Werner has Uma in Upper Elementary in Mariana’s class.
Our objective as SPA Co-Chairs is to build community by helping to connect parents/guardians and recruiting parent volunteers for various school events and faculty/staff appreciation opportunities. In order to meet our objective, we need everyone's participation. We want each of you to feel a connection to our unique community. So, whether you have only 30 minutes or a couple of hours, your ideas, time, talents, and voices are truly needed and appreciated. There are endless ways in which you can contribute.
The best way to stay up to date is to follow the Springmont Parent Association Facebook group. This Facebook page is not affiliated with the official Springmont Facebook page but is a forum where parents can connect, share resources, ask questions, etc. https://www.facebook.com/groups/710244756532999/?ref=share
We have a busy schedule of events for the 2024-25 school year, so keep an eye out for our next email when we will provide more details about these as well as the dates and times of this year’s SPA meetings.
We thank you in advance for all the support you offer our great school and ask that you not hesitate to ask us any questions; if we don’t know the answers, we will happily point you to someone who will.
We’re going to have a great school year!
Sincerely,
Steve Little and Caro Werner

Early Morning Care & Extended Day Options
July 08, 2024
Primary Half Day and Primary School Day students may be enrolled in before-school care (Early Morning Care) in the Media Center 7:30-8:15 a.m. for $10/day. (Before-school care for All Day Primary students is included in All Day tuition and provided in the student's classroom.)
Springmont offers Elementary & Middle School students before-school care (Early Morning Care) in the Media Center 7:30-8:15 a.m., and after-school care (Extended Day) 3:00/3:15-6:00 p.m. Elementary and Middle School families may select from 2 payment options:
The first is a flat fee of $4560 for the entire school year – this allows a student to use Early Care 7:30-8:15 and Extended Day 3:00/3:15-6:00 as much as needed for the one annual fee, which can be added to your payment plan now. With this plan, parents do not have to register their children in advance, and children enrolled in this option are automatically sent to Extended Day rather than carpool at the end of each school day. If you did not select this plan during Annual Registration/Enrollment and would like to add it to your Elementary or Middle School student's enrollment, please email Andrea Restifo by August 16.
The second is a daily option. Parents may register their child (by 6 a.m. daily) as needed for Early Care ($10/day) and/or Extended Day ($15/hour billed in 15-minute increments). Families are billed monthly for the time used. Fall Semester Early Care and Extended Day Registration is now open and is also offered via a link in Springmont Weekly News throughout the school year.
- Click here for information and registration for Early Morning Care.
- Click here for information and registration for Extended Day.
Please note that pre-registration is required for daily Early Care and Extended Day and may be done for the whole Fall semester or as the occasion/need arises.
