The last day of class for Springfield Public School students is expected to be May 20th for all schools except Robberson Community School.  The district set that tentative date Wednesday.  Students will be dismissed two hours early on the last day of school.

Springfield Public Schools has used three snow days this year.  If there are more days lost due to inclement weather, that date will be adjusted.

According to the district, April 17 will not be used as an inclement weather make-up day. It will be a professional learning/work day for staff, and students will not attend classes.

Any adjustment to the last day of school will not impact graduation ceremonies, which will be held May 7-8 at JQH Arena.

Students who attend Robberson Community School should monitor communications from their school for adjustments to its school calendar.
