Springhouse got its name because its purpose is very similar to an actual springhouse. A springhouse is built around a fresh spring of water that comes up from the ground. Its purpose is to protect the precious resource of water, making it useful to others. The school Springhouse has the same intention – but with people. We know that if we protect and take care of the preciousness of each person, they come alive. When we know our own preciousness and take care of it, we naturally protect and care for the preciousness of others. Over time, this grows more vital communities and, eventually, a more vital culture for all.
