Principal Welcome to this wonderful school and our extraordinary community of learners. One of the most important principles by which we guide the early childhood learner is the tremendous importance of modeling the behaviors we desire children to develop. All of our teachers are dedicated learners in their own right. We are constantly seeking every possible way we can better develop that exciting and real sense of discovery and exploration the children bring to us each and every day. Their enthusiasm is definitely contagious and the energy of this school is something that motivates us all to help children learn. Spangdahlem Elementary School is very much a learning place.

Spangdahlem has a strong reputation of supporting your children with gifted educators, well versed in the curriculum and instructional strategies. We firmly believe that all children must have successful encounters with school, in every aspect of its social, emotional and academic components.

We as adults are all partners in this endeavor and we actively seek your help as we pursue our goals and objectives together. We also know we can sometime learn best from our mistakes and, therefore, request your support and understanding when things have not gone as expected or a problem arises.We promise clear communication and realize the best problem solver is prompt attention to the question at hand. The teacher is, of course, your first avenue of communication, for each educator establishes a unique learning environment that best fulfills the expectations of their planned activities.

Please become a part of us. Our Parent-Teacher-Student Association (PTSA) is one of the strongest, most proactive and empowering organizations you will ever have the opportunity to join. Their commitment to this school is unquestioned. Their dedication to your children is genuine and giving. We promise to work together to provide the highest quality of education possible.
