Thank you all for your hard work and commitment to making Spring Wood the place to be!  #SWMSChargerPride

The Thunderdome was an exciting place at the Staff vs. Staff Basketball game!  The crowd was cheering, jeering, and laughing the whole time!  And the Spring Wood Staff did not disappoint!  What fun to see the energy both on and off the court! 

Check out the SW Photo Galleries to see pictures from the game.
