As part of our vision to prepare individuals for life, Springwood realizes the value of non-traditional learning experiences for students. For many years, job shadowing, community service, college tours, mini courses, and much more have comprised the Interim Program for Springwood 7th – 12th grade students. Students and teachers alike enjoy the opportunity to interact beyond the confines of the traditional classroom.
