American 1 Credit Union is excited to host our upcoming A1CU Community Fair, a family-friendly financial reality fair in partnership with Junior Achievement.
The event will take place on Thursday, June 25 from 6:00–8:00 PM at the American 1 Event Center. It’s designed to be an engaging, hands-on experience where participants can explore real-life financial decisions in a fun and supportive environment.
At the heart of the event is an interactive simulation, where families will navigate choices like housing, transportation, food, and lifestyle expenses and see firsthand how those decisions impact a budget. It’s a great way to build financial awareness in a way that feels approachable and relevant for all ages.
We’re also bringing together 20+ local community resources, along with free dinner, Kona Ice, giveaways, and family-friendly activities to create a welcoming and low-pressure learning experience.
Check it out! I hope you are having a spectacular summer vacation!

It didn’t rain on Brody Baum's parade today! The late-day liquid sunshine gave Brody and his dad some incredible father-son time at the Division 4 Boys Golf State finals. Brody shot a fantastic 74 and is currently in 2nd place by only two strokes. When he mounts his comeback tomorrow, he will become Springport’s first-ever Individual State Champion! Meanwhile, the Springport team shot a 349, holding tight in 7th place. The current clubhouse leaders, Western Michigan Christian, are at 331. In the golf world, this gap is incredibly close since the team score is based on a four-player total—anything can happen tomorrow! Tee time is tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM at Forest Akers West on the campus of Michigan State University. Come out to support the boys and witness history in the making! GO SPARTANS! 💙🤍💙🏌️♂️🏆

Hello Spartan Families and greater Springport community~
You may or may not be aware of the Senior Prank that took place late Thursday evening at Springport High School. There appears to be misinformation circulating around the community regarding malicious destruction of school property. I was not able to comment on the situation on Friday due to a very lengthy and thorough investigation which began on Friday morning and was completed today.
I can attest that there was not any malicious destruction to the building as Mr. Kregel, Mrs. Riehle and I were with the students involved all day on Friday, supervising the clean up and restorative process. There was however a VERY large mess of paper in the hallways and classrooms of SHS. There were also classroom desks and chairs removed and placed outside but none were damaged or broken.
When the SHS Administration team and I first witnessed the outcome of the prank, there was a question as to whether or not school chromebooks and calculators, as well as staff personal items may have been broken or taken. During the clean up process, in which all students involved in the prank were present to pick up the mess, it was discovered that none of the electronic devices were damaged. There are two calculators unaccounted for and we continue to investigate as to whether or not they were taken during the prank. Prior to the start of the clean up and as part of the investigation, School Resource Officer Marco Hernandez met with each SHS staff member present that day in their classroom which allowed each of them to determine if there was any damage to personal belongings.
I recognize the frustration this situation has caused within the school community and in the greater Springport community, particularly at a time of significant district investment. I appreciate your support in helping reinforce to all community members that this matter is being taken seriously and that appropriate disciplinary action will be taken.
As it stands, Commencement exercises remain scheduled to take place this Friday at 6:30pm at Springport Stadium. The fraction of senior students involved in the prank will be taking part in a community service project after graduation rehearsal on Wednesday morning and afternoon.
I appreciate your patience and trust as we navigated this situation with accountability and restoration in mind. Let’s join together this Friday to celebrate our seniors and their well-deserved milestone. Thank you for your ongoing support of our students and the Springport community.
Respectfully,
Terry A. Sedlar
Superintendent
