History
Springfield Heights Elementary School opened in 1960 with 16 rooms of grade 1 to 8 students. 16 additional classrooms and a school board office were added in 1961. The playground behind the school was a natural forest. During the 60’s, enrollment reached over 800 students. In 1967, the River East School Division #9 was created, and the school board office was transformed into the staffroom. Over the decades, many changes took place at Springfield Heights School. In 1969 the first kindergarten classes began. The Ukrainian Bilingual program started in 1980. The French Immersion program started in 1982. In 2013 the Grade 6 students moved to Middle School and Springfield Heights School became a 猫咪AVgarten to Grade 5 early years school. In 2020 the Ukrainian Bilingual program left Springfield Heights School as the Ukrainian Bilingual programs across the school division were amalgamated. In 2020, the school became a dual track school and was renamed École Springfield Heights School.
