Celebrating the Heartbeat of Our Schools: Administrative Assistants Appreciation

This week, Spring Lake Public Schools proudly celebrates the incredible administrative assistants who keep our schools and offices running smoothly every single day. These individuals are the calm voices answering phones, the sharp minds behind busy schedules, and the steady hands juggling the countless details that keep our system moving forward.

Their work touches every corner of our district. Whether they’re tracking down a missing lunchbox, securing a last-minute substitute teacher, or welcoming students and families with a warm smile, administrative assistants do it all—often without recognition, but always with dedication.

In classrooms, hallways, front offices, and inboxes, their presence is constant. They support our staff, reassure our families, and provide students with a sense of comfort and consistency. Their problem-solving skills, patience, and calm under pressure make even the most chaotic days feel manageable.

While their roles often take place behind the scenes, the impact they have is felt in every interaction, every solution, and every success. They are not just part of the support system—they are the system’s backbone.

To every administrative assistant across the district: thank you. We see the work you do, and we are endlessly grateful. Your commitment, kindness, and professionalism shape the heart of Spring Lake Public Schools. We truly couldn’t do this without you.
