Springer Celebration Welcomes Alum and NFL Player Mike Wright
A Springer Celebration! 2015 will cater to the sports fan in all of us by honoring alumni athletes and featuring sports-themed activities. The guest speaker for the evening will be Michael Wright, Springer alumnus and defensive end for the New England Patriots for seven years. Reminiscent of last year’s fundraiser, Game On! Experience. Learn. Achieve. will feature fun activities for sports enthusiasts and everyone else. Alumni parent and former member of Springer’s Board of Trustees Nick Spadaccini will chair
the event this year.
“I am honored to Chair the Springer Annual Celebrat ion, especially this year with Michael Wright as the Alumni Honoree,” said Nick. “Michael’s parents and my wife and I are friends, and we have a special bond in being Springer School Alumni parents. Both of our children experienced, learned, and achieved because of strategies taught by Springer. Being a young child and learning how to cope and confront the challenge of learning disabilities is a valuable life lesson in perseverance that will lead to better outcomes when they face other challenges later in life. Many children and families come and go from Springer, but the lessons learned and the support will be with them forever.”
