Important News:
As you probably all have heard our playground was set fire on September 4th. The district has been very supportive in getting the old play structure removed and working with us to get a replacement. This was very hard for our children when they learned what happened to our playground. We discussed it related to our zones. We reassured the children that it will be replaced. They did a remarkable job of understanding and are really looking forward to our new play area.
We have had such terrific support from the community. So many have reached out to help in one way or another as we rebuild our playground.
Site Council:
We are forming a site council for SPN. A Site Council consists of staff, parents, and community members. The council serves as a vehicle for communication and partnership between the school, parents,and
thecommunity. If you are interested in serving on a committee, please e-mail me at
We would meet quarterly. Please let me know if you interested. Thanks so much!

Uniforms:
Students are required to wear a uniform to school each day, unless stated by a note sent from school. Dress down days are marked on the calendar for each month.
*This year, your child may wear a Stony Point North spirit shirt on any day as long as they wear uniform pants, skirts or shorts.
*If students wear a sweatshirt in school, they may wear any sweatshirt that is one of the uniform colors. So a solid black, navy blue, royal blue, or white sweatshirt would be fine. If the solid sweatshirt has a hood it is not allowed to be worn in school.
**If a student has a sweatshirt on that is not uniform colors they will be asked to take it off. These sweatshirts are available at walmart and target as well as other stores.
*If a child is out of uniform a note will be sent home notifying parents of the issue with the uniform.
