So far this year, the students and clubs of Springfield have displayed strong dedication to their crafts. To celebrate these accomplishments, we would like to recognize some members of our student body.
Pennsylvania Music Educators Association
Our school continues to shine in the arts, with senior Sean Powell and junior Isaac Darga both qualifying for the PMEA (Pennsylvania Music Educators Association) D11 Honor Choir! Not only did they qualify, but they BOTH ranked #1 in their individual voice parts (Isaac: Tenor 1, Sean: Tenor 2) out of all the students who auditioned from Bucks and Montgomery Counties.
