When the record-breaking big-wave bodyboarder Andrew Karr opened his surf school in the summer of 2021, the name came naturally. “I have always called people ‘legend,’ like affectionately. And I’ve done that since I was a kid,” he said. So when a student’s father suggested he name his company Legend Surf Co., he didn’t think twice.

As the district works to put a tumultous period behind it, two incumbents on the board — Wayne Gauger and Kristen Peterson — are seeking re-election, with a third — Joseph Karpinski —- a parent of three children at the school and a vocal critic of the board and certain administrators, also vying for one of two seats.

Springs School students enjoyed the annual Buy One Get One book fair recently, especially liking the fact that they get a free book for every one that they buy, thanks to the Springs School PTA.

In the Springs School District three people are running for two seats. The incumbents Erik Fredrickson and Emma Field are seeking second terms, while Gerard Picco is running for his first.
