Spring ISD
Public School Information

Spring ISD's principal goal is the development of students who excel academically, reason and solve problems rationally, and act responsibly by displaying good character and citizenship. Pursuit of that goal has resulted in Spring ISD earning the recognized rating from the Texas Education Agency since 1999.

Spring ISD is a diverse and growing district located 20 miles north of downtown Houston in an urban area of Harris County that spans 57 square miles and is home to over 130,000 residents.

Legend has it that the town of Spring was born in the mid 1800s. Just where the name Spring came from is up for speculation.

Old-timers recall that a mining camp settled just south of Spring Creek about the same time the season changed from winter to spring. The men had endured an especially harsh winter, so they welcomed the new season by naming their location "Spring Camp".

Other old-timers maintain the Spring name gets its origins from a creek of the same name that runs through the east side of the District.

Throughout the years, many of the District’s schools and facilities have been named in honor of the men and women who have contributed to the District’s growth and reputation for educational excellence.

Riding the Bus Safety Tips

1. Have a safe place to wait for your bus, away from traffic and the street.

2. Stay away from the bus until it comes to a complete stop and the driver signals you to enter.

3. When being dropped off, exit the bus and walk ten giant steps away from the bus. Keep a safe distance between you and the bus. Also, remember that the bus driver can see you best when you are back away from the bus.

4. Use the handrail to enter and exit the bus.

5. Stay away from the bus until the driver gives his/her signal that it's okay to approach.

6. Be aware of the street traffic around you. Drivers are required to follow certain rules of the road concerning buses, however, not all do. Protect yourself and watch out!

Walking and Biking to School

1. Mind all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard - never cross the street against a light, even if you don't see any traffic.

2. Walk your bike through intersections.

3. Walk with a buddy.

4. Wear reflective material, it makes you more visible to street traffic.

Riding in a Car

1. You might have heard before that most traffic crashes occur close to home, they do.

2. Safety belts are the best form of protection passengers have in the event of a crash.

3. You are four times more likely to be seriously injured or killed if ejected from the vehicle in a crash.

Everyone needs to be buckled up properly. That means older kids in seat belts, younger kids in booster seats and little kids in child safety seats.

 

BACKPACK SAFETY

Choosing the right backpack. Look for the following:

Wide, padded shoulder straps - Narrow straps can dig into shoulders. This can cause pain and restrict circulation.
 
Padded back - A padded back protects against sharp edges on objects inside the pack and increases comfort.

To prevent injury when using a backpack, do the following:

Pack light. The backpack should never weigh more than 10 to 20 percent of the student's body weight.

Always use both shoulder straps. Slinging a backpack over one shoulder can strain muscles. Wearing a backpack on one shoulder may increase curvature of the spine.

Organize the backpack to use all of its compartments. Pack heavier items closest to the center of the back.

Use a rolling backpack. This type of backpack may be a good choice for students who must tote a heavy load. Remember that rolling backpacks still must be carried upstairs. And they may be difficult to roll in snow.

CHECKLIST FOR THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Is your child registered? When is the first day of school? What time does school start?
 
What time is lunch? Can your child buy it at school, and how much will it cost? Will she need a snack?
 
Have you filled out all the health forms or emergency contact forms that have been sent home?
 
Have any new health problems developed in your child over the summer that will affect her school day? Does the school nurse know about this condition, or is an appointment set up to discuss it?
 
If your child needs to take medication at school on the first day, have arrangements been made for this?
 
Does your youngster know where she is going after school (e.g., home, babysitter)? Does she know how she will get there? If you will not be there when she arrives, does she know who will be responsible for her, what the rules are, and how to get help in an emergency?
