District opens convocation to public

Springfield City Schools will open its annual back to school convocation to the public for the first time in recent history, according to Superintendent David Estrop.

The Aug. 25 convocation will be Estrop’s first with the district since joining Springfield this summer.

“It will be more than speeches,” Estrop said. “We will have some fun and I hope you will be pleasantly surprised.

It begins at 8:30 a.m. in the cafeteria/auditorium Tuesday, Aug. 25 at Springfield High School and all buildings will be closed that morning so staff can attend, said Estrop. (Thanks to SCS parent for letting me know I forgot to include the location).

In many urban districts like Springfield, convocation serves as a celebration of the new school year and is one of the few times during the year that staff from every building across the district are together in one place.

Will you attend the convocation?
