Help us raise funds – and LOVE – for SPS

Join our community-wide lovefest for Springfield Public Schools! For two weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day, we’re showering our students and staff with the appreciation and support they deserve. Your support provides a heartfelt mid-year boost, letting our incredible educators know our community cares. Your donation will directly fund innovative projects that empower students and teachers across the district.

Why Your Gift Matters

Community generosity bring SPS educator’s incredible ideas to life, like Glendale High School’s EmpowerHER Closet and Sunshine Elementary’s “Bright Futures” Back-to-School Grant.

The need is still great. This year, we received grant requests totaling more than double the amount we could fund. Your gift will help us close that gap and bring more brilliant projects from dedicated educators into our schools.

Dr. Sharina Smith

Sending much love to all of the Central High School teachers! My two kids went to Central, so I had 8 years of being involved with them in the IB program, debate, FBLA, cross country, orchestra, choir, tennis, and wrestling. Your teachers and coaches deserve much love for being patient with IB kids – they are gifted but challenging!! You would be proud to see them as adults now! Keep up the difficult but meaningful work you do!

Support to an incredible school and staff that make it great!

Katie Towns

I am so thankful for the teachers, the admin, the team that supports my kids everyday at SPS. I love dropping them off in car line because we are greeted by the teachers that somehow despite all the things they do and the challenges they face seem to remember just why they are there…our kids. And they are happy to see them, calling hello to them, hugging them, waving, laughing. It is such a joy. I am so grateful for that and for years that have made my children feel like they are welcomed, they are loved, they have a community. Thank you, SPS.

Alyce M’s Parents

The staff at McGregor Elementary have been amazing to help our daughter really come out of her shell and grow in so many ways. She has developed mentally and socially with help from teachers and counselors in ways and with tools that we could not help her as with her parents at home. She looks forward to coming to school almost every day and is always excited about telling and showing us what she has learned. She has really been loving all the fun events going on through out the school year this year also. The teachers and staff at McGregor really care about the students and families from their school and it definitely shows.

Natalie Murdock

Thank you to all of our dedicated SPS staff!
