Good Morning Starting TODAY, our band parking lot will be OPEN after 7:30 AM to provide extra parking for our students! We are thrilled to offer this additional space to make things a bit easier for everyone. However, a quick reminder to all parents and students: Please be sure to leave the front parking spots next to the school open for our band directors and staff. Many of our directors and staff travel between schools and need quick access to the band hall to ensure they can serve our students effectively. Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation! Here's to making this a smooth and successful school year. Andrew Hohman Principal Springtown High School

We have been informed by the City of Springtown that FM 51 is currently closed from 199 to Lynch Bend due to a fatal accident. Traffic is being rerouted, and at this time, we do not know if the road will reopen before our buses begin their routes. If your student rides buses 39, 52, 75, 81, or MB11, please be aware that drop-off times may be earlier or later than usual due to the rerouting. If you have specific questions, please contact our transportation department at 817-220-1418. Additionally, if you typically drive this route to pick up your child, we recommend planning an alternate route to avoid FM 51. Staff members who drive this route should also prepare for alternate routes when leaving for the day.
