January is School Board Recognition Month. We at Spring Hill ISD are truly grateful to our trustees for their dedication and commitment to Spring Hill schools and students!

The theme of this year’s School Board Recognition Month is Locally Elected, Community Connected, which highlights the connection between school trustees and their communities. School board members are the largest group of locally-elected officials in the state.

“Our board members are so important. Their dedication, vision, and commitment help to make our district a success,” Superintendent Penny Fleet said.

Board members serving Spring Hill ISD are John Borens, Ben Shelton, Holly Kirl, Mark White, Kyle Stephens, Dave Duncan, and Wayne Noon. We appreciate you!
