Spring Run Elementary School opened its doors in 1999. School administrators tasked the students with voting for a mascot, the Husky, and the teachers with selecting the school colors, blue and silver, to represent the new millennium, and red, to symbolize the heart of the school. More than two decades since its establishment, the school’s total annual enrollment including preschool and kindergarten through 5 programs averages 950 students. Unique to Spring Run are their horticultural achievements. The school raised funds from an herb sale to build two 12 x 16-foot outdoor gardens and three aeroponic tower gardens in their courtyard. The goal was twofold: students would plant flowers to embellish the school grounds while simultaneously learning about healthy eating and where food comes from. The school also offer summer and after-school programs for additional special academic and extracurricular activities. With a low student-teacher ratio of 15:1, Spring Run faculty have been particularly successful in generating above-state average scores in reading. The school is generally on par with the district and the state in other learning categories. Spring Run’s school motto, ‘Work hard, work together, you're on the Husky team!’ is evident in their creative endeavors and extracurricular offerings. A strong collaborative foundation has allowed the school to flourish and prosper over the past two decades.

Special education children are mistreated and should be looked into. The teahers and staff are the bullies here and principle just as much. They will cover up and sweep under the rugs everything they can.

Our daughter attended Kindergarten-third grade and we have had the most positive experience every step of the way! The only reason we moved is because she tested for a gifted program at another location. We love spring run!
