Springtown High School

We have been informed by the City of Springtown that FM 51 is currently closed from 199 to Lynch Bend due to a fatal accident. Traffic is being rerouted, and at this time, we do not know if the road will reopen before our buses begin their routes. If your student rides buses 39, 52, 75, 81, or MB11, please be aware that drop-off times may be earlier or later than usual due to the rerouting. If you have specific questions, please contact our transportation department at 817-220-1418. Additionally, if you typically drive this route to pick up your child, we recommend planning an alternate route to avoid FM 51. Staff members who drive this route should also prepare for alternate routes when leaving for the day.

🚨 Important Update for Springtown ISD Families 🚨 To help keep all of our students safe, we want to update you that food deliveries can now only be made by individuals listed under your student’s emergency contacts. This means that services like Uber Eats, GrubHub, Food Kab, etc., will not be allowed to deliver food to students at school. Please make sure that any food brought to school is delivered by someone listed on your child’s emergency contact list. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated as we work together to maintain a safe environment for all our students. Thank you for your understanding and support!
