This is a **TENTATIVE** bus schedule for Lanphier Summer School. Updates will follow. Please note that SMTD has placed routes at elementary schools within the neighborhoods and at Lanphier to make it easier for students to get to Springfield High, where the Lanphier Summer School will be held. If there are no students at a particular route for several days, SMTD will drop that route. This list may change and be updated. We will make sure to communicate to all students and parents of any changes. Please watch the website, Facebook, and your email.

Here is an amazing opportunity for Lanphier students and young adults in our community!
The Healthcare Entry-Level Professional Skills (HELPrS) program is an immersive, six-week summer program designed for high school students going into their senior year or recent graduates ages 16-20. Please see the link attached for more information!
There will be priority registrations from minorities, males, and seniors or graduates from Lanphier and Southeast High Schools. Others are welcome to apply, too. Selection will consider the priority factors first, followed by the time of application (first-come first-served basis) up to a maximum of 15 students.
